    So creating quiet places for relaxation is not allowed anymore? Because a child “shouts, laughs and moves” and that’s just how children are, no need to try and teach it to be quiet in certain spaces. But you are also not allowed to exclude them. These childfree places mostly exist because too many parents think children need to be loud and disruptiv everywhere they go and they can’t possibly teach them to be quiet for an hour or two.

      This is actually a kinda solved problem.

      Visit a casino resort. I did it once, looking for a hotel, didn’t realize it was a casino. But no children anywhere near.

      Just quiet and calm atmosphere.

      the point is probably that lots of places dont allow children which incentivizes people to not have children, and the government would prefer people to have more children

        Is that so in France? I’ve only ever been there on holiday but I can’t imagine that “lots of places don’t allow children”. Museums were full of kids and you could see many in restaurants. As long as they are behaving I don’t think they are excluded much except for some hotels, spas or saunas. It’s ok to have some “adult-only spaces” just like there are kid-spaces like playgrounds, children’s museums etc. But I don’t have kids in France so I don’t know how many kid-free zones there are. I just noticed a lot of museums having tours or areas for kids.

        I suggest the legislature double as a pre-school, then, and see how they like it.
