I don't see how anybody reasonable can defend the store owner. This is the parent's fault for sure I agree with that. But for those of you who say you would let a stranger yell at your child and do nothing I can't fathom that. Either yall don't have children or yall are terrible parents. I wouldn't physical hit her but things would have got real. Cussing, yelling making the woman cry that sort of thing. It would have never happened to me because if my daughter cries for more than 3-4 minutes I either take her outside or do whatever to calm her down. The parents sound like punks but so does the store owner. And yes there are some people who would have escalated it to physical assault. Those people are trashy but no less trashy then yelling at a child you don't know.


The good parents here would of never given the store owner a reason to yell at our kid because their arse wouldn't of been in that restaurant screaming up a storm. That's why we can take the store owners side...

I understand that sentiment, I do, which is why my wife and I don't go to dinner a lot and if we do its usually Mexican where its noisy anyway and fast. But if you yell at my child, I'm going to frick you up.



Oh yeah? I'll be done with you in one punch. Next knuckle sandwich goes right into your brat kid's mouth. Try me, BAW.

What does the the store owner addressing the parents have to do with yelling at a child. So they did the right thing that didn't work so you do the totally wrong thing. This isn't an order of operations where you start with parents then work your way to the child. Yelling at the child is wrong no matter what you have done previously. You tell the parents to leave, you never yell at the child in this situation.

Then you are a terrible person. It doesn't matter how bad the parents are. It also doesn't matter how annoying the child is. A child crying because he or she is hungry can never be yelled at by a stranger in a justified way. Why can't people understand it has nothing to do with how bad the parents are. The child is a seperate issue.

If you've let the situation grow to the point where someone else needs to show you how to control your kid, you get no sympathy.

Oh, was it my kid that was getting yelled at? I said I always take my kids outside if they are crying or fussy. And at the toddler age, the only people raising their voice to my kids are me and my wife. If some dumb bitch is yelling at them, then yea, something is going to happen. Here's to hoping you don't have kids.

Exactly. A lot of places people should have enough common sense not to bring a toddler to in the first place.

You gotta understand, you're talking to a bunch of morons who agree with the majority. That's all it is.

Pretty spot on.

Props to the store owner. While I probably would have yelled at the parents, maybe she's on to something going after the kid. Clearly the parents can't do anything.

It's really getting out of control... planes especially. I can't remember the last flight I had that DIDN'T multiple shithead kids on it. I've even started seeing it in first class. I have no problem telling a parent what I think of them in that situation, and I wish more people would do the same. Maybe things would start to change.

And to extend that logic, no one else parents like I do either, so you have to expect...that when you come to a public place, you are going to interact with the public and shite like this happens.

there is pretty large difference in thinking they are special and hollering at a strangers kid....I personally would not mind it as I use the same startle holler to get mine back on the rails sometimes...but the outsider doing the hollering needs to know me better than these folks appeared to know each other.

I got a boy that is pretty damn headstrong, sometimes asking doesn't get it done.

I guess I'm a dick to some people for asking a young family to take their kid out of the movie theater Friday night during the 10:30 pm showing of Ant Man because their kid was crying for the first ten minutes and they didn't leave.

Honestly nothing is more publicly rude than allowing your kid to make a ruckus in a public place and doing nothing about it.

no...no one in this thread would call you a dick for doing that

they might call you a dick if you slapped the back of the kids chair and yelled at the kid to shut up though

If smoking is allowed to fill the air in restaurants, then toddler's noise is allowed to fill the air in the restaurant.

I'm glad I had kids before smoking was disallowed in restaurants.

Since smoking is no longer allowed in the air at restaurants, then a toddler's noise is no longer allowed in the air at restaurants.

I would never have been in a position that the store owner would need to yell at my kids. But I have no problem telling a kid to straighten up right in front of his parents if they aren't correcting bad behavior. I don't give a shite if they are offended - they should thank me for doing their job.

I still don't care about your kids. Keep them behaving or keep them out. You can pick.
