Might just be one of those things we notice more as we get older.

I see it from all races and backgrounds these days.

We can go eat somewhere middle tier (not high end as they will get kicked out and I have seen that happen) with no Democrats and still have little shitheads being obnoxious and the parents are just indifferent to it not thinking how disruptive it is for others.

God damn even as an infant? We've been taking our 7 month old out to eat every weekend. He just sleeps most of the time. Gotta time it up with nap time.

I'd only have one too if it was that bad so don't blame you.

Black moms and grandmothers have no problems beating the shite out of their kids in public. Btw OP, I got 4 kids and agree with you 100%

I’m not in a toy store. I’m talking about places like the supermarket, the airport, etc

I also don’t understand why going to the supermarket has to be a family event. If you have two parents, one stay at home with the kids and the other go to the store. Why do parents have to bring the whole kit and caboodle with them i have no idea

Nah he's not wrong. Parents, and people, in general, are inconsiderate assholes that lack common courtesy these days. Everyone is so self-absorbed that what used to be social norms are now foreign to the average person.


Yep, some little a-hole in Costco a couple weeks ago kept running around and darting in front of my cart while both parents watched and did nothing. At some point he cut it too close and got clipped. I looked back at his parents and told them they should pay attention to what their kid was doing and went on about my day. No sympathy or remorse.

This 100%. At Costco it’s bad. People bringing their entire large families there and it’s always packed. Parents do nothing about their kids running around. But if your basket hide a kid and it’s the kid/parents fault, you’re still the bad guy to the negligent parents.

Im not good at this. I tell rude people shite all the time and my GF gets worried sometimes but the older I get the less patience I have for inconsiderate people. I try to be nice about it but sometimes I admit I am just a flat out a-hole about it. Depends on the situation.

I feel like I am not far from wearing calve high socks with sandals and Hawaiian shirts and screaming at everyone some days but I truly hate the general public.

What's the problem with going grocery shopping with your wife and child? They have those seats in the shopping carts for kids. Put your child in the shopping cart and let them enjoy riding around the store.

Trust me, if you ever lose a child you will wish you had spent more time with them while they were here.

I very rarely ever see a whole family in the supermarket.

I’m about to make a run to Rouses, I’ll Report back how many unruly families I see letting their kids run amuck inside the store

Kids in a supermarket are a non issue.

Restaurants? Different story.

So kids shouldn't be allowed to go grocery shopping or fly anymore. Any other places they're off limits?

Only time my 2 year old isn’t disruptive in a restaurant a phone has to be stuck to her face. She’ll ruin our meal every time and my wife and I end up in a fight. From birth to 2 years old is a nightmare that we won’t relive. Only 1 kid for us.


We just refrained from going to restaurants until we knew with certainty that our kids wouldn’t cut up. For our youngest, that wasn’t until about 3

If all it does is end up in chaos and a fight, doesn’t seem worth it to go.

True story, I was driving down the street the other day and this car full of millennials pulled out in front of me, the driver didn’t even see me because he was on his phone, so I laid on my horn, well now he was in front of me and there was a stop sign right as he got in front of me, we both stopped and I kept on my horn

There was an older SJW white lady walking her dog on the sidewalk, she didn’t see the a-hole pull out in front of me, all she saw was me blowing my horn at him while he was stopped. She started saying something to me so I rolled down the window and asked her what she said, she said” there’s a stop sign right there” I told her to mind her own business and that he pulled out in front of me and I almost hit him, then I told her to carry her arse down the sidewalk.

then she yelled, “You’re just a typical angry white man”.

I got a chuckle

So you honked your horn already after his infraction of pulling out in front of you, then preceded to honk again at the stop sign?

She was right, you are angry.
