IT WAS nice to see the item in Tuesday night's Echo about the Compass Inn and the landlady taking a step against parents and rowdy children.

The problem with modern parents is they don't know how to bring children up.

They spend too much time on their mobile phone and not enough time watching what the children are up to.

I for one will be making time to visit the Compass Inn for a meal and I wish more establishments would go down that road.

Perhaps then parents would try to bring their children up the proper way.
