Mom Jordan Simone says if we want to see fewer ' iPad kids' in restaurants, we have to be more accommodating.

She says parents should accept that they will have to increase their tolerance for childish nonsense outside in the world.

The reaction to the video was not overwhelming agreement...even from parents.

A good compromise is to save the screen for the actual eating part of the meal.

Even as a parent, I can completely agree that kids don't belong everywhere.

Toddlers don't usually need to go to fancy steakhouses or romantic inns.

But using screens as an easy default instead of helping kids learn how to behave in public is the wrong move in the longterm.
