Keep them in worship. Certainly parents can sneak out for diapering or severe tantrums, but planning for children to leave worship has several negative meanings to me

Yes, children should be welcome to sit in worship services with their parents; worship is for everyone, and it's better (and more successful) for children to get used to a church environment from babyhood rather than suddenly be expected to sit still and pay attention when they are deemed old enough, especially in today's culture of near constant entertainment.

It depends. My immediate response to this question is a resounding “yes,” but then I think about screaming toddlers and hungry infants.
