Restaurateur goes viral for adding $50 to parents' bill, saying kids belong 'at Burger King'—that's bad leadership: Expert

When a restaurant owner went viral for charging a mother a $50 "unable to parent" fee, allegedly yelling at her when she protested, some people praised him.

The mother, Lyndsey Landmann, saw the "adult surcharge" policy written on the menu at Toccoa Riverside Restaurant in Blue Ridge, Georgia, she recently told NBC's "TODAY." Landmann was part of a group of four families, including 11 kids between ages 3 and 8 — and was amazed at how "good" and "well behaved" the children were during the meal, she said.

The restaurant's owner, Tim Richter, seemingly felt differently. He notified Landmann of a $50 charge per bill at their table, because the kids were "too loud," she said.

"I was like, 'They were quiet the whole time.' He got in our faces and told us that we belonged at Burger King and not at his restaurant," said Landmann. "I looked around the restaurant and everybody was frozen, watching this show he was putting on. He was yelling."
