Screaming kids?

Question

I was in the grocery store today and a woman was in there with her 3 or 4 year old kid. The kid was screaming her head off because the mother wouldn't give her some candy. The mother was just ignoring the kid. When did this become acceptable? Why can't people discipline their children?

Answer 1

I see this all the time. Plus the kids that just wonder around the store bumping into you and getting in your way.
Parents.....
If you are too stupid or lazy to control you children, don't have any, please. You and they are a burden on society and the little brats should be sent to a home. If you don't understand how to raise the child, attend a class. I have no desire to hear your screaming bastard child in a public place. You kids will turn out horrible and in 10 years you'll be on Maury crying about how they beat you and whore around.
There should be a license to breed. Stupid people shouldn't be allowed to produce irritating brats to annoy the rest of the world.

Answer 2

I have a disorder called Asperger Syndrome, which is basically high-functioning autism. I deal with sound sensitivities and SCREAMING KIDS are one on my "Big 3" list along with dogs and fireworks. Unfortunately, the first is the least avoidable. I am not going to get into my opinion of parents& their spawnlings in the 90's (and the stellar results of today-surpassable to any other generation).
I will tell you that my life is SEVERELY impared by my sound sensitivity. I am doing better in therapy. I was taught a process called cognative therapy which trained my brain to think differently when handling hard situations.
Moving on, I was spanked when I was little, and I am not the victim of a damaged psyche or any nonsense such as that. I think some people use their kids as tools to be passive-aggressive towards others as I think we live in such a culture.
I think it is a problem that EVERYBODY has to deal with.
P.S. When I'm out in public now, I've actually witnessed a few spankings...and the S.W.A.T. Team never arrived.

I so agree with you. I do have kids.... 2 but i discipline! I can take my kids to nice restorants, stores, anywhere in public and they know how to act. My son is 6 and my girl is 4. So I know with a little discipline children can be quite sweet to have. Now about yelling, screaming children . My brother and wife have 3 girls. 6, 4, and a new born. (the new born has right to yell) but the other two. They cant go anywhere with them and they always ask me why my kids dont act the way theirs do..... hello.... discipline! I went out with them one night and we brought are children. Mine sat and ate all their food and was very sweet and quiet. Their 6 year old threw some food at the people by us, their 4 year old knocked the plates off of the table . and that was just the start of the dinner. It got so bad that my kids asked why the other kids acted that way. and i to this day will not go out with my brother and wife if they bring their kids. its maybe mean but it was horrible!!! When I went to the mall her 6 year old ran off, far enough where we could not see her.... of couse I freaked, but my sister- in-law seemed to not care. I could not believe it. I would be so scared if my child ran off in the mall.! I think children need to learn how to act around adults. they will be one someday and if you dont teach them what kind of an adult do you think you are making? Sorry i wrote so much i just agree with you tons.

confident and no. young toddlers scream, extremely around the two to 3 year previous form and at times there is extremely little you're able to do approximately it. you're able to be the terrific determine interior the international and bring your baby up in a company, supportive and loving way and that they're going to nonetheless sometime basically circulate off on one without way of consoling them. and normally mum and dad could be at their wits end without way of struggling with the baby and constrained time to get completed what they could desire to do. mothers are commonly canines drained, socially remoted and characteristic some positioned up natal melancholy to shield. they could be waiting to get out the homestead basically as quickly as a week and that must be whilst the baby makes a decision to have a tantrum. What you gonna do? on the different hand the variety you describe this mom makes her sound like she has no attention for others. I artwork in a public area and a few mothers drag thier toddlers around crying without attempting to convenience them, normally leaving them strapped interior the chair for an hour and ignoring them. If i replaced into strapped in a push chair for an hour being skipped over i could make a brilliant number of noise approximately it. Screaming young toddlers? A actuality of existence. Are mum and dad thoughtless? some are and a few are no longer.

Answer 5

I know it's really horrible (and VERY annoying) to hear little kids screeching their heads off when they don't get their way. However, the mother ignoring the kid is one way of showing the kid that he/she can't get what their way just because they are screaming. (Unfortunately, everybody else's ears have to suffer).

My little one did that once (and only once.) When she started to scream I warned her to stop and when she didn't, I left the cart in the store, marched her outside and into the car and we did not come back in until she stopped. It worked! She doesn't shriek in stores anymore.

Answer 6

Some parents are getting lazy with kids now. Ther are no morals in which parent's raise their kids by so they just let them run free and wild.I remember when I was young you didn't think about acting that way in a store because if you did your butt would be in big trouble.

Answer 7

Current parenting theorists tell us parents to ignore such negative behaviors and they will cease. The discipline you refer to is now called child abuse. I am certainly not espousing these positions, nor am I justifying them in any way. Most parents are so terrified of CPS knocking on their door, that they err on the side of caution, to the detriment of disciplining their children.

Answer 8

Whenever I'm out in public, it's not just the screaming that bothers me, but the parents allowing the kid to wander around.
If parents aren't going to discipline their kids, please leave them at home.

Answer 9

Because they're afraid of getting CPS called on them. People are CPS happy, because now a swat on the butt means you're abusing your child(ren).
