Pub owners in Faversham, Kent, are increasingly frustrated with unruly children causing disturbances in their establishments, prompting discussions about potential bans on underage patrons. The Market Inn's landlord, Tim Stowell, voiced his concerns on social media, stating that he is considering making the venue strictly for those aged 12 and over due to incidents of children damaging property and behaving disruptively. Other local pubs, including The Anchor, have echoed similar sentiments, urging parents to supervise their children while enjoying the pub's amenities. Many patrons have supported these calls, lamenting a perceived decline in parenting standards and the behavior of children in public spaces. However, some individuals, including Stacey Ferguson, argue that such bans may create an unwelcoming atmosphere for families. This debate reflects broader societal concerns about children's behavior in public venues, as illustrated by a recent incident involving former BBC newsreader Jan Leeming, who criticized parents for not controlling their children in a restaurant setting.
