baby loves disco?

Think having kids ends your social life? Think again.

Here's an article about the rise in family-friendly nightclubs -- swank venues that host late-afternoon, pre-dinner shindigs where DJs spin '70s and '80s music for adults who shake their groove thangs with kids in hand.

At the forefront of the movent is Baby Loves Disco, which hosts events nationally for kids and parents to dance and party together.

For as many people who are opposed to these kind of social organizations, I think it's better option than, say, the parents who leave their kids with a babysitter while getting wasted at Oxygen on a Saturday night.

What do you guys think? Should partiers retire from the nightlife scene once they have kids?

(Baby Loves Disco doesn't host Columbus events, but there is an Atlanta chapter. Access it here. And for more parenting news, check out my co-worker Annie Addington's parenting blog here.)
