Should kids be banned in pubs? Stylist argues not

When journalist Alexandra Jones found out her local pub was banning children, she wasn't impressed. Here's why she thinks kids should be allowed in pubs.

Terrible generalisation, but in Europe kids fit into the adult world. UK and Ireland feels like it’s the other way around. Parents expect the world to fit around their children. So I can see why some places would do that here.
