There is one national chain of restaurants which logs more drunken brawls than all the others. Far outweighing even "real" drinking establishments (i.e., those with bars and drink specials) is (ready for this?)... Chuckie Cheese.
Yes, that's right! Apparently according to a national survey of crime stats, Chuckie Cheese has more assaults, domestic disturbances, etc. from alcohol consumption than other national chains.
And what does this prove? Not totally sure. I've personally never known a single person who's gotten loaded while at a kid's birthday party. But kids...that's where adults get stupider than by alcohol consumption.
We hear stories of parents getting overly involved in the lives of their children. Case and point, the cyber bullying case from St. Louis where the young girl committed suicide due to her friend's mother's MySpace duping. And get a bunch of kids together, especially where games, toys, bright flashing lights and alcohol are involved? ...yeah, I can see that.
Sad, isn't it? People have little control of themselves at any time, but to do so with children looking on is a huge disservice to the development and maturing processes of those kids.
