Students bringing kids to social events at University

People think it is OK to bring their kids to anything these days. Today I had my graduation BBQ at university with friends only to be spoiled by a student's screaming baby. This was not even a mature student who had such a young child, this student may have been my age if only a little older (I'm 21 years old). I'm puzzled as to why someone would opt to start a family so young whilst studying.

But my main gripe is that she brings her young baby to a social event at University which is not really for families. Nobody else had their kids there and it's unfair to make her friends do the babysitting for her when they also want to enjoy their day.

For God's sake there is a nursery at our University campus, so why couldn't she just drop the child there? It would have been easier on all of us! Why should other people's enjoyment be ruined by someone else's offspring?

I'm sick of thoughtless students bringing their kids to the campus because it is not a creche, it is a place of study and the campus down the road is where everything for kids is situated. In the end I left with my friends and went down to the pub opposite and it was thankfully child free!
