No Children Allowed For Showings

I recently requested a rental application for a 4plex near mine, and on it it read "Adults Only Please" regarding showings.

I can't tell you how much I've always wanted to do this...I mean, you've just spent a boatload on freshening up your unit, and here are some kids running rampant through your place, dragging their hands on your freshly painted walls, banging cabinet doors, etc... It's happened to me plenty...Drives me nutz.

Is it legal to not allow children for showings? I might imagine that even if it is, you'd be discouraging potential tenants.

I actually WANT to see how the kids behave before they move in and dismantel the place for me.
