Balzac 3 years ago“I love that all the non-parents think it’s possible to shut a 2 year old up.” - Patrick A It is possible. And at the very least you can take them somewhere else until they calm down. This statement suggests to me you’re not so much a parent, but you’re just someone that has a kid. I think most kids learn to cry from their parents. They here their parents’ cries and they learn their tenor and cadence from them. Also, many parents reward their kids cries with immediate gratification, because they can’t stand the sound because it’s a mirror to their own character. You might be a very annoying personality, so your kid cries very annoyingly with a strong sense of entitlement. Anyway, the biggest “cry-baby” is the old man that slapped the baby. I think we can all agree on that.

Dominic T. 3 years agoI’m not defending it, but I find all of the “mother” comments on this story even more disturbing. Look, your little snowflake might be precious to you, but not to everyone else. They can be annoying and out of control and they are not the smartest/best/greatest and they are not the center of attention. Control your kid and set real boundaries and rules, everyone would be better off for it… including the children.

Patrick A 3 years agoI love that all the non-parents think it’s possible to shut a 2 year old up. If you want to know how easy it is, please go stand in front of a train with your arms up yelling “STOP! YOU’RE IN BIG TROUBLE, TRAIN!” Either you’ll never have kids, which is your loss, or some day you’ll learn the fun way why empathy is important.

Tom Ottoman 3 years agoIf he slapped my child, I would never stop smashing this dick’s face in with whatever was handy. He would be a gritty, ugly puddle on the floor by the time the police handed me my medals.

Laura R. 3 years agodid she just stand there and wait for him to finish? I would have been so full of adrenaline and rage that I would have picked him up and run him down the conveyor, flipped him upside down into a garbage can, fashioned explosives out of unique combinations of chewing gum, blown him up, then taken his pieces and stacked them in an end cap as a rollback.
And that’s the censored version. God help me if anyone ever had the nerve to touch my kid. -
