In Italy, children are no longer allowed in restaurants

In Brescia, the leadership of the local restaurant supported an “anti-child” policy, which is becoming increasingly popular in Italy and abroad.

"No children allowed!" or a new European trend and an Italian restaurant "for adults"

The situation is somewhat reminiscent of a similar situation with dogs (in relation to which, by the way, many bans have been lifted recently): children are prohibited from entering certain public places. Obviously, the American “childfree” trend has recently begun to gain momentum in old Europe: recently, children are not allowed in certain restaurants, beaches, airplanes and even hotels.

It seems that the idea was first expressed in the book of the American writer Corinne Maier entitled "Repentant mother, No to Children. Forty reasons to not have children."

After all, everyone knows that young children make noise, cry and in every way disturb the peace of a poor tourist: therefore the book published in 2008 became a real bestseller in America.

However, on the other hand, we can say that in the same Italy, as throughout Europe, the tendency to refuse to give birth to children has been observed for quite some time: they require too much effort and sacrifice.

Moreover, according to a low-cost airline study Ryairair, many customers are willing to pay more for a ticket if they are guaranteed no child shouting and a crap.

Special flights have naturally appeared, for example, in the direction of Crete or the Canary Islands from an English airline "Thomas Cook Airlines"not allowing children to board the aircraft; or tourist villages and hotels that also do not provide services to families with children. This initiative gained great success in Germany: there appeared a lot of hotels, bars and even houses for sale only for childless couples. A similar picture is observed in Sweden: hotels do not populate children under 12 years old.

In Italy, however, the law does not have the right to refuse to accept children. But the pizzeria restaurant popular in Brescia "Bagnolo Mella" ahead of time and since 2007 has prohibited entry with children under 10 years after 21.00. Initially, this decision caused a lot of controversy and unflattering reviews on the popular travel site TripAdvisor.

So a certain Marilisa writes: “An absurd ban. The establishment is very pleasant, everything is fine, prices are affordable ... But if they didn’t want to see the children, they should open a jewelry store, not a restaurant.”

For such statements, the owners of the establishment, who have been observing the result of such a policy for seven years, confidently declare: "There used to be a lot of complaints, but now everything works great, things don't get better."
