We remember when we grew up, we did what our parents told us to do. There was no arguing or complaining or breaking of the rules. If our mom or dad gave us an instruction, we followed it. Sure, sometimes we’d try to bend the rules a little when they were out of earshot, but hey – who didn’t? But the reason we behaved wasn’t because we’d get tanned backsides (that was only for when we REALLY played up…). We know parenting isn’t easy, but you’ve got to try your best to discipline your kids. Which is what we’d really like to tell this lady.
She has no control over her badly behaved kid whatsoever. And it comes back to bite her on the butt. In public…
