00:00So this gentleman here is telling me to tell my eight-month-old to stop screaming

00:04because he has sensitive ears. I know it's loud. No, you're disrespectful. You're entitled and

00:12you're being privileged right now. But he's an adult. He can leave. And he chooses not to leave.

00:15He's choosing me to tell me to take my baby out. She was literally saying her first words at the

00:20table. But his next comment only adds fuel to the fire. You need to learn to be respectful.

00:25She's a child, sir. You're causing this whole restaurant to have to hear our discussion.

00:29She's entitled to bring her children wherever she wants.

00:32If that sign allows for children, the Whitaker kids will be in the building back.

00:37You came to me about my child. Did you not?

00:42You're speaking for other people that haven't spoken. And the only reason I'm furious about it

00:46is because you came to address me about an eight-month-old.

00:49I'm not forcing anything. I didn't tell the baby to talk. I'm happy that she has a voice and I'm

00:53happy she can speak because there's children out here that can't even speak. That's non-verbal.

00:56I understand that some people choose not to have children, but that's not my problem.

00:59While there are spaces that allow children to be there, we'll be there, okay?

01:03So I am grateful for my child to be able to have a voice. And that's not up to you as an adult

01:07to chastise me or to whoop me because my child is speaking. You can't remove yourself from this

01:14restaurant.

01:14The man makes an assumption that pushes her over the edge.

01:17I'm not responsible for you for the way that men have probably mistreated you in the past.

01:23Man, I'm a happily married woman. What are you talking about, baby? I'm 10 years next week clapping up for me.

01:27That's what you can do. So no one has mistreated me. You've been disrespectful.

01:31I didn't accuse you. Have I ever said racist? Did I say racist in here?

01:34I said privilege because you're being an adult and you're expecting me to remove my child when

01:50I patronize this restaurant just like you. That is privilege. You're expecting me to put

01:54yourself over everybody else in this restaurant.

01:59It's not a thing. You realize how disrespectful it is, right?

02:03The staff soon come over to defuse the situation.

02:05I'm so sorry.

02:06No, I'm so livid.

02:08Yeah, I'm so sorry because I totally understand having kids. It can be hard. And sometimes it's

02:13hard to get them to listen to you when they're not even able to-

02:16It's not even that I can tell them. She's eight months.

02:19That's an eight-month-old. What the hell can you teach an eight-month-old?

02:21If he felt it was uncomfortable for him, he didn't have to come and speak to me. He

02:25could have left. I mean, he's speaking for other people in the restaurant, making me an

02:28uncomfortable experience.

02:30Yeah, yeah.

02:30That would help.

02:31Yeah, I totally understand. Yes, ma'am.

02:32And I come here a lot.

02:34Yeah, I know. I see you all coming here a lot, too.

02:36I'm thankful. And every time you come here with your kids, I've never had a son.

02:41And I've seen other people with kids and Daniel. And we felt that. But when we say

02:44the other family coming with kids, we realize this was a family establishment.

02:47Yeah, exactly.

02:47And that's why we never-

02:48And I never say anything about it.

02:49And that's why we come back.

02:50And I never say anything about it.

02:51And you don't.

02:51And thank you for that.

02:52Yep. So I totally understand. And I'm sorry for the inconvenience.

02:57What would you do in this situation?

No one tells me how to raise my child 😡
