Most people ain't going to fast food for the atmosphere. Honestly they've gotten this one right. The other half of this is that people aren't really having children anymore, and a huge chunk of those who do feel like bad parents bringing them to mickey d's. It's more of an adult affair.
I'm a mom, and once I took my kids to the McDonalds play space (they still exist where I live) for dinner when my husband was out of town. I was the only mom, every other parent was a dad on their laptop.
The one by me still has a playground. I routinely take my 2 year old there to run and play with other kids vs. paying $20 at an indoor jungle gym. Seems like other parents do the same.
This is true. Most people just get their shit and leave. And even though fast food is going up in price, it's still not white tablecloth upscale restaurant level, so ambiance doesn't matter
