SPending the weekend in Central NY we went to two places that were versions of what to a Canadian were hybrids of diners and taverns: http://www.genx40.com/archives/2008/february/threedaysand Both places were over 50 years old and definitely family friendly. I suspect that these places are all over and are exactly the sort of place to rid oneself of the curse of Gen Y. That is odd.

With middle class and even upper middle class families being priced out of Manhattan, Brooklyn has seen an invasion of people in their 'family planning years.' But honestly some members of my generation are so anti-child it is hilarious. If you brought the most well behaved baby into a bar in the middle of the day, they would give you dirty looks the whole time. I do not know the source of this hostility, but find it totally ridiculous. Time, behavior(the child's and the patrons') and place are the factors one must always consider when determining if bringing junior into a bar is appropriate.
