You win for biggest asshole. Congrats!

Seriously? I'd rather hear a kid throw a tantrum than listen to a person like you spew venom all over the place.

She secretly loves the US and Americans. Right, PP?


Either that or perhaps she enjoys the freedoms that can't be found in many other countries--like freedom of speech?!


Actually not. I'm not free here. You guys pay me well, that's all.


Then you are materialistic like Americans?


So working because I love my job and using the money to buy food and pay for education is being materialistic now? OK, then I am.

Seems like you guys have low tolerance for whiny kids in public places...


How do you know the guy was American?


Also years of posting on DCUM show that most people (even parents) hate kids.

See posts about "don't bring your kids to resteraunts," or "how to keep your kids quiet on planes" where people attack parents for kids crying. That would never happen in my country.


Are you sure? Isn't this more individual, not country, specific? Maybe it happens in your country but they don't report it or cover it in the news because it goes against the "it would never happen in our country" ideal.


I think PP meant the "adults hate kids" in general not the assault thing. Welcoming kids into society is definitely cultural. What culture adds to the invitation "adults only" or "adult reception"?

I married a man from a culture similar to PP and while they assume kids are welcome still I had to put in the invitation "kids welcome" because my guests assumed kids don't belong in weddings. What a shame!


Some cultures have sense enough to know that many events are intended only for adults, thereby rendering that phrase obsolete.


Yup. The same culture that punches and waterboards crying babies...

I'm not talking about tantrums in stores, just regular frustration where the kid could be redirected after a little bit of attention and reassurance. How hard is it to go over, give them a hug, acknowledge their frustration with whatever didn't go the way they wanted it to, and help them get interested in something else? Very, apparently.


Eh, I never leave my kid to cry, always go over to him, hug him, try to redirect him, but it doesn't help him to stop screaming. Some kids are just very persistent, to put it nicely. I also hate it when parents ignore their kids and don't try to help and redirect them, because I feel that it is mean to the child to not at least try, but helping, comforting and redirecting doesn't necessarily equate to no more screaming and yelling.

Same here. Any function we attend, whether it be a wedding, baby shower, birthday party (for kids or adults), funeral, etc has kids and it would be downright weird if they were not invited. Everyone still has a good time, and we help each other out with the kids.

Kids are to be seen but never ever heard, I guess.

Considering the statistic you reported is less than 2%, I hardly think that is "just like every other poorly behaved kid"...
