My views were much diffrnet before I had kids, but not now. My daughter is very well behaved in public but she still acts up from time to time and I could care less what others think or feel during that moment. My attention is her not them. I teach my daughter to be good in public but that is fr me not for anyone else. I may be selfish but I don't care, we pay taxes we deserve to eat and shop when and where we want no matter what. That does'nt mean I would let my child go crazy in public but a little tantrum or crying is nothing to drop your cart in an isle for or to leave in the middle of dinner for. I have never personally had any one say anything to me about my kids acting up because it is rare, but I can promise you this if they ever did they would be leaving with a fat lip! I think everyone should just mind there own bussiness. So many people who have NO KIDS are judgmental towards those who do like they would be so much better at it, untill you walk a day in a parents shoes you have no room to comment. PERIOD!! |
Well said Brandy,
Until you are a parent you can't say how you would respond. Reminds me of my sister's best friend. We all hung out years ago, when our kids were little(she wasn't a parent at the time) and when the kids would act up she would exclaim"My kids will never act that way, get away with that..well guess what, she had kids and they were far worse than most kids I had ever seen.We teased her when her kids wouuld get away with things.."my kids...BLAH... BLAH ..BLAH
Also, Brandy is not saying she let's her children be disrubtive,screaming, running in the isles,clothes rack etc... We can't and should'nt expect a 6 year old or whatever act as an adult...NO WAY!!!
