In this regard, the restaurant said -
This does not mean that the restaurant does not welcome children, but "in order to ensure the dining experience of other customers, the children's 'screaming and noisy' or 'uncontrolled' behavior will not be tolerated."
The reason why the restaurant introduced this new policy is because restaurant employees have received many complaints about "children making noises and disturbing other customers' dining" and therefore decided to use "extra charges" to scare away some parents of naughty children (who would rather not do this business) or let parents have snacks.
However, this approach has caused controversy among netizens.
Some people expressed strong support and hoped to be widely promoted. After all, the restaurant charges are not high, which mainly serves as a warning.

Many netizens have also raised objections, believing that this is discrimination against families with children.
"Noisy is the nature of a child, and it cannot be suppressed like this." Moreover, "When parents pay the money, will the child make noise more confidently?"

has already had precedents for children's noise.
In 2019, The White Moose Café in Dublin, Ireland posted on a social networking website that a 15% "scream fee" is charged for children screaming in restaurants.
