I baby sat last year for a community play, I was incharge of not only watching kids whose parents were in the play but keeping track of the kids IN the play and getting them to their scenes on time.
I also found out I was pregnant at the same time.

I've now decided that if I do nothing else right as a parent I will teach my daughter manners.

I have a best friend who is the world's worst to just show up and be like so can you watch my kid - yes because I can totally say no with her standing there with her big sad eyes - this kid mind you has not been fed, has three pages of homework and terrorizes my cat.

@ one of a million

I've had a lot of good experiences with kids, but whenever I do get a bad experience, it's always AWFUL.

@ Louise Belcher

I feel your pain. I worked in a (very small) children's store for a while a few years ago. The store was literally the size of your average bedroom and the crazy things parents let their kids do in public, man.

Recently, I went to a diner with my aunt and her daughter. Her daughter (who's 3) pulled the straw out of my cup, sucked on the bottom of the straw and then put it back in the cup. She then proceeded to do it to everyone at the table (it was me, my mom, and my aunt). Her mom didn't even say "Stop" or "Don't do that" she just acted like that was okay behavior. When the waitress came around to take our orders, I asked for a new glass of water, my aunt had the nerve to look offended. Like, yeah, sorry I don't want to catch whatever gross germs your kid has. (Especially since she fairly regularly gets gross kids illnesses like croup, and she runs around with a perpetual runny nose.)

Parents get so comfortable with their kid's bodily fluids, they forget that not everyone else is. Perfect strangers aren't interested in touching your kid's spit!

Preach the "house training." My mom used to sit my sister and I down at home when we were younger and pretend we were at a restaurant and tell us how we're supposed to behave. It sounds silly and all of my coworkers laugh when I tell them, but I was a little angel (in public, at least ).

I work in a craft store and I've actually managed to be shocked at kids behavior and how the parents react. No, do not expect me to ring you up with a smile when your child is screeching like a hyena. I mean, really? There was this kid the other night screaming his head off before he even got in the store and this continued for about ten minutes and everyone in the store had that control your child look on their face. I don't have a kid but when I take my dog, my dog into stores you can bet your left leg that I take him out if he's misbehaving. Which yeah, dogs are held to a higher standard than kids which I get but CONTROL YO KIDS.

That was all sort of relevant to this blog if you squint (I appear to have a lot of pent up anger about this )

EDIT: I FORGOT SOMETHING. When I'm ringing someone up who has children with them and the kid has product in their mouth and the parents put it up on the counter. For me to touch. What. Only TWICE have I had a parent hold up the barcode for me. And yeah, I put hand sanitizer on in front of them. As much as you're used to touching your child's saliva and being all up in those germs, I am not.
And also, when the child has something in their mouth and the parent hands it to me like "oh, we don't want this." Well I don't either thank you

RE- LOTS OF PENT UP ANGER.

As I was reading this I was think she must have had a bad experience with watching someone else kids.
