Must admit I am quite shocked by the comment about young children being 'pushed round the resort at all hours'. I have two young children (fortunately they are not called Charlene or Brittany or I really would be enraged at this point
), and in the very hot summer months the evenings are the best time to take them out for a walk and for them to try to get some fresh air before they go to bed. You see plenty of Turkish families with young babies out at night walking along the prom (I know because I often walk out with my Turkish sister in law and her children), surely they cannot also be expected to keep the children away from the prom so that everyone can have a child free holiday?!
It would be far more irresponsible (and disruptive to others) if I were to drag my sons around the resort in the middle of the day when it is far too hot for them to be out and about and tantrums would be sure to ensue. It's the children's holiday too, they cannot be expected to be kept indoors for the holiday's duration just because someone may take offence at their pushchair!
If we choose to eat out in the evenings with the kids (which we by no means do every night, not that it would be anyone else's business if we did) we ensure that as far as is possible they are no bother to anyone else. We do not sit getting sozzled next to the pram and wouldn't dream of taking them into bars or nightclubs.
I appreciate that children are not everyone's cup of tea (I remember my relaxed holidays to Calis pre-kids and how I used to groan inwardly at the sight of a table of toddlers in a restaurant) but don't think its fair to assume that just because someone, shock horror, takes their child out at night they are deliberately out to ruin everyone's holiday, or a bad parent.
