Before you judge a parent, you should try being one yourself, then you'll have understanding. I remember being like you.

Your choices, your responsibility. That includes not letting those choices be loud dicks at strangers.
I hate children like any reasonable person and don't want to reproduce but what you're demanding isn't possible. Children are like dramatic drunks and them being annoying is a normal process of growing up.
I was a camp counsellor for 6 or so summers and managed to keep groups of hyped up crazy kids quite when needed kind of whenever but sure.
I mean, we all give kids more leeway than functional adults but that doesn't mean they a free pass to chaos. If the kids can't behave in a hot tub, they don't get to stay in that hot tub, it's basic parenting. Which is a hard job but that's the one those parents volunteered for.
Oh I completely understand, that's why I made the responsible choice to sterilize myself.
Pls sir im sorry, ill get the duct tape
As a parent anytime my daughter acted up one of us would take her outside. She would lose her audience and no one wants to hear that. We only had to do that a few tines before just saying "if you keep this up I'm going to take you out side" would put an end to the fit.....now that being said my daughter was generally a very easy child to raise and I know that is not always the case.
Our neighbors do the same, especially on weekend mornings while the rest of the neighborhood is still asleep. Outside isnβt necessarily a location where youβre not bothering anyone.
The only reason I can think of, other than them just being a-holes, is that they're used to all the crying and since nobody else comments on it, they'll assume it's not that big of a deal.
