Harvard Sociologist Hilary Levey Friedman stopped by The Morning Show to discuss this growing trend.
Is it really right to ban children from hotels and other establishments?
o While it s not precisely legal in the US (it is in other parts of the world-so during international travel in hotels and on certain sections of airlines, do check), some establishments advertise themselves as adults only (but not in that sense). Restaurants led the way on this, but now many hotels are joining in.
What is driving this change?
o The biggest source is changing demographics. We have many more DINKs than ever before (Double Income No Kids) who have the resources to want to travel in the lap of luxury.
