Title: Call it what it is: A bribe as a substitute for forethought and courtesy
Review: Yes, in theory it could be a humorous attempt to diffuse an awkward, unanticipated situation. But the operative word here is "unanticipated." You knew darn well that when you took your 'terrible twos' toddler to the tony, intimate restaurant that he/she might very well act like, um....., a 'terrible twos' toddler. So thanks for nothing as you drag the rest of us into your brave new world while you paper over your outed selfishness with tacky retail largesse.
