Seriously what is up with whining about people bringing their kids shopping. I get that they hate poor people I just would expect them to have more than one thing to talk about
Edit: Even though I enjoy conflict, I guess I’ll add some context here anyway. The usual line I hear as smalltalk is “You don’t have to bring the whole family shopping,” which if you don’t shut it down immediately, will be followed up with some of the most racist and/or classist statements you can imagine, typically involving birth rates
As a father of two, I can confirm that we train our kids specifically to act out in public. It’s a lot of fun for everyone involved. I, for one, think it’s delightful when my child melts down because the grocery store doesn’t have an item that almost certainly exists only in their mind. It’s just one of the joys of being a Bad Parent™
