To feel annoyed when people bring their children to adult-only events?

[ThatTwinklyFinch]

I’ve attended several adult-only events where some guests have brought their children along, despite clear instructions that the event was for adults only. I find it disruptive and inconsiderate to those who expected a child-free environment. AIBU to feel frustrated and expect people to adhere to event guidelines?

When ours were primary age we had friends with similar aged children over give them all tea then they watched a film upstairs while we had a meal and catch up then they went home 9ish. We all had to be up early with them anyway so that suited everyone. Your social life evolves guess the children bringers are those that refuse to adjust.

I'm involved in a sports team, adult men and women are involved, it can get sweary. There are 2 women who insist on bringing kids along, it's school nights, and later evening, finishing past 10. They then are doing the 'ahem, kids!' when the in inevitable 'for fucks sake!' is yelled.
The kids are running around being tripped over as adults are running at full pelt and the inevitable 'muuuummmy' every two minutes..
I couldn't do stuff like this specifically because I didn't have childcare when mine were young. Yes, I missed out..tough.
