Where do kids belong? More restaurants are telling parents to watch their kids or take it to go

04:24

Restaurants across Massachusetts are creating new kid policies.

Bog Iron Brewing in Norton and Dragon Pizza in Somerville are two recent examples.

"We put off implementing this as long as we could but posting the previous policy did almost nothing as we very often still had children simply running through the space, climbing on furniture," wrote Bog Iron Brewing on social media.

The message from restaurant owners is clear: reign in your children, or we may ask you to leave.
