I agree with everything you said. Of your 450 nights on Regent, how many has there been a 2 year old on board? I would venture to guess - not many. Yes, Regent welcomes children and families, but the original poster wanted opinions on bringing a 2 and 5 year on board. The overwhelming response has been "NO." As for adults behaving poorly, I have seen a lot. Either their ability to reason is in decline, or they weren't taught properly. It still doesn't change the fact that a toddler is only interested in the self.
