A new hobby for American parents: barroom brawls at Chuckie Cheese's!

No, seriouslyWhat the heck, people? Knife fights and twelve-parent fights over video games and such at a kid's restaraunt? These places sound worse than biker bars. I know the place says "We're the place where a kid can be a kid!", but that doesn't mean the parents have to act childishly too

The availability of alcohol and location in rough neighborhoods also seems to have played a factor.

I'm not sure whether the parental reaction is simply due to immaturity on the part of parents, or exaggeration of their protective instincts by the 'Cult of the Child' mentality.
