it seems many modern parents think the world is full of free babysitters.
they also seem to think the rest of us are supposed to put up with their failures to teach their children manners.
can you tell that i disagree with both of these perspectives?

guild business meetings are no place for little children.
well-mannered teenagers might have something to contribute so a guild might consider letting them become members if an adult sponsors and accompanies them to meetings.

if they are too young to sew they should not be allowed to attend either meetings or sew-days and similar activities.
if they are old enough to sew but are neither interested nor there for that reason they should also not be there.

nobody should have to "grin and bear" an ill-behaved child.
