Do people not have the experience of peeking into the restaurant kitchen growing up?
One year I was on an elementary school trip at this restaurant that did a little historical show along with the meal, with a lot of crowd interaction, and I got caught up in acting out my role and went into the kitchen at which point I was immediately told that was off-limits, and I never did it again.
Not the same thing as letting a 2-year-old into a kitchen though. But I definitely explored and learned what was appropriate and what wasn't as I grew up.
Yes, I did stuff like this when I was a kid, everybody does, but no, I wasn't actively encouraged to do so, au contraire, my parents always taught me how to behave in public and I'm grateful for it. Kids will become adults one day, if they are never taught how to behave they'll probably end up being entitled pricks that think they can do whatever they want whenever they want.
I don't think everybody does anymore. Some parents keep their kids so sheltered now they don't know how to do anything independently.
