CAROLINA BEACH, N.C. (WGHP) - A restaurant in Carolina Beach is stirring up some controversy after they posted a sign on the store window that reads "Screaming children will not be tolerated."

The owner of the Olde Salty restaurant, Brenda Armes, told WECT-TV that she is tired of having customers complain about misbehaving and screaming children inside the restaurant.

Armes says the signs have worked.

"It has been a good thing for us," Armes told WECT-TV. "It has brought us in more customers than it has ever kept away."
