PhöQ Posted August 4, 2009 Posted August 4, 2009 I agree with both sides, but like with dogs or pet monkeys you gotta respect the other folks and keep them under control. Uncontrolled kids do drive me fucking nuts, so I usually bring laced treats to leave around for them to pick up and eat. Usually quiets them down. Just kidding. Quote
Off_White Posted August 4, 2009 Posted August 4, 2009 douchebags are a dime a dozen, we've more than a few of our own here. Quote
Gary_Yngve Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 He may have had a defensible argument had a kid peed on his rope. Otherwise reminds me of this dude on NWHikers whining that boyscouts at a car-campground are being too loud at 8PM... http://www.nwhikers.net/forums/viewtopic.php?t=7977217&highlight= Quote
Ponderosa Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 Kids (or dogs) at the crag are required the same behaviors and responsibilities due their owners: Keep boisterousness to a low roar. Keep them off other climbers' gear. Properly dispose of their feces. Provide them with a pan of water. Spay and neuter. Quote

olyclimber Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 personally i hate it when hyper observant people come to the crag. they're always pointing out how you screwed up and notice when you're french freeing on 5.9. they some how own the place, and if you bugger up their feng shui then they get all menstrual on you.

Pete_H Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 I like kids at the crag. I beat them up and steel their ice cream. Quote

superB Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 its douchey when losers have kids because they think itll be cool. then they drag em around to all the same stuff they used to do before kids because they figger theyll be cool parents. they are actually being shitty parents and killing everyones buzz, kids including.

Fairweather Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 I think taking clandestine pictures of another man's family--especially his children--and then posting them on a public website could/should earn the whiner a black eye. Quote
RuMR Posted August 5, 2009 Author Posted August 5, 2009 fairweather...agreed! Superbwanker...whatever... Quote
superB Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 fairweather...agreed! Superbwanker...whatever... good point....???? Quote
Pete_H Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 Seems like places where parents take kids to climb (like easy 5.6/5.7 slabs) are usually different locations than where big kids go climbing so this conflict is usually not an issue. Maybe this fellow who posted this was just bitter because the kids were sending his sick 5.8 proj's. Quote
DPS Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 This reminds me of when my daughter was 8 and we climbed Diedre. There was a party of two dudes behind us grousing about getting stuck behind us. We were up, over, and back at the car while they were still on pitch 4. Quote
chef_raekwon Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 Rumney on a weekend is pretty brutal. The Mass-holes come out in force, and there is douchebaggery all around. Quote

Dude...thats very quotable! I'm going to have to quote that sometime myself. "They get all menstrual on you." I like it... A newer version of "going postal", and a more useful version than "getting medieval" on someone's ass. Quote
glassgowkiss Posted August 5, 2009 Posted August 5, 2009 Rudy, loud kids are a nuisance at the craig, so are dogs, loud music and beta spewing clown-punch faders. The point is that it's a parental responsibility to control your kids. They might be quite and funny to you, but not to other people. Why don't people bring their loud kids to a classic music concerts or other performances? Because if they can't behave they'll be asked to leave. When I go climbing I want to relax, talk shit (yes and swear) with my friends, not deal with someone's spawn. Quote
RuMR Posted August 5, 2009 Author Posted August 5, 2009 Bob...they are no more of a nuisance than some loud mouth buffoon either... Last time i checked i wasn't buying a ticket to the crag... Arguably bob, you have pissed off many people with some of your antics...should you be asked to leave the crag? that's right, you woulda said "Fuck off"... Quote
glassgowkiss Posted August 6, 2009 Posted August 6, 2009 Rudy, my frequent climbing partner Jia and his wife take their 4 yo daughter to Smoke Bluffs all the time. However, they supervise her constantly and I saw on several occasions, when they took her somewhere else, when she started crying or not behaving. Quote
