re: What are your thoughts on parents who let their toddler scream in public?

I am dead serious- not in a public setting. at her grandparents or maybe at home, but not in public. just did not happen. We could spot when she was getting to be irritable, and then it would be time to get her somewhere to get some rest. I would remember- it is a pet peeve. it is not hard to spare people from your child who is misbehaving.

Are you serious? It's called being respectful to others. Every child doesn't act the way you think they do. Open your eyes the next time you're in public.

I'm pretty well aware of how kids act in public. I'm the mother of a very sweet and mostly well behaved two year old. But every toddler has their moments and for you to sit here and pretend otherwise is ignorant. And if I need groceries, and my kid decides he NEEDS the bag of goldfish or a "fawk-let" (chocolate) at the checkout, do you really advise I just give in and give it to him? Or tell him no and let him learn we don't get whatever we want because we train our parents to fear our meltdowns? I'll choose to tell him no and let him have a couple meltdowns so he learns that's the way it goes for the rest of his life.
If you don't like that then frankly I don't give a chit.

Exactly. That why your child acts like an arse when he/she wants to in public, because you don't give a chit.

What about the people who have kids and when they start to cry they begin to beat them telling them to "I told you to stop crying" They continue to hit them telling them to stop crying. This pisses me off. No kid will stop crying while you are beating them in public.

Mine do. You must not be beating them correctly.

You're right. Next thing you know my kid will be shooting you in the balls with a BB gun in the Target parking lot. Woooo parenting!

Not sure who needs the arse whipping more, parents or kids.

You nicely glossed over that he spelled "compliment" wrong.

It depends on what mood I'm in.
If I'm upset or I just woke up, they can go frick themselves.
If I'm feeling like I am right now, I wouldn't care as much.

I've seen this most frequently in places like Wal-mart. It makes me feel super uncomfortable. It's one of the main reasons why I generally avoid that store.

Now when you are in public, shut your kid up somehow and punish them at home later. I also dont like seeing a 300 pound dad whooping the shite out of his son in front of me which only makes him cry more.
My dad beat the crap out of us, but never in public. My mom never whipped us in public either.
All either one of them had to do was tell me, "You're getting a whipping when you get home."
I would be so nice the rest of the day until we got home that it would make you sick. Don't know why I reacted that way, because I always got the whipping if they said I was going to get it. Got two if my mom got mad enough to whip me. I'd laugh at her when she whipped me. Laugh until she'd cry. When my dad got home, he'd whip me again for laughing at her. I guess I wasn't very bright.

I didn't see the inside of a restaurant for the first 10 years of my life. My mom knew better. The worst is a kid screaming at a restaurant.
I think this is wrong. I think parents should take their kids to shitty kid friendly restaurants like Applebee's, Chili's, etc. Teach them how to behave in a restaurant when their young. Sure, it'll take a while, but that's why you go to kid friendly places, so when they do act out, it's not quite so annoying to other diners.
They'll soon be ready for better dining establishments. I was eating at Galatoire's, Commander's, Brennan's, Antoine's etc on the reg by the time I was 5. My parents started off with places like Camelia Grill, O'Henry's, Mandina's etc and taught me how to behave in public, but especially in restaurants.
So many times now I'll go to a local mexican place that is "kid friendly" in my neighborhood and the place is a zoo b/c kids are running around and screaming while parents eat and drink ignoring them b/c in their eyes it's OK. Its not.

I have a cousin who let's his 4 year old run around and scream like a banchee everywhere they go. I want to punch him, his pregnant wife and his child in the face every time we have a family gathering

I have a two year old, who from time to time will pitch a fit. I'll always carry her out to the car to calm her down when she does. For you dumb fricks saying no one with a toddler should go out in public I have one piece of advice: have a kid and see how much fun they have going out in public, then come back here and post about not taking them out. Your annoyance with my child's momentary fit means diddly poo to me in comparison to her enjoying life and having fun. Deal with it, shitheads.
