[quote=Anonymous]I think annoyance about kids is partially due to the diversity of the US. We really don't have a shared culture around child rearing, so adults get annoyed when they perceive that parents are reacting to kids in the correct manner. So, if your cultural background is "oh let kids be kids, and don't worry if they make some noise or climb on stuff," you are going to be in conflict with people who think "childhood is a time of training and kids should be taught from a very young age to behave in ways that are appropriate for adult society."[/quote]
