Whatever, the LEGO Store can set their own policies and it sounds like this lady's child rearing philosophy is in the minority so I doubt this will hurt them very much.
You have got to hand it to the media though; almost 30 years of scaremongering about abductions has left the public with a heightened fear of abduction. And now the media gets more viewers by making this a story.
With respect to the Chuck e Cheese policy, I wonder if this becomes a liability issue that the Corporation fears. What if a kid is abducted and killed? Would the parents sue the restaurant for negligence? I wouldn't count it out and I am sure when creating the policy, they didn't either.
