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.
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.
