Makes me sad..

[kryogenik]

Though it's no surprise or not even seldom seen, it still makes me very sad to see a parent rip into a tiny child with such rage and foul language.
I've just seen a mother call her (no more than) 2 year old some really, really horrible names. Really effing and blinding at this little angel because she couldn't push her pram over rough land and had stumbled and fell onto her bum. She told her she was 'totally pee'd off' with her and that she was going to get a slap if she didn't get up off her bleep and push her bleeping pram because 'you wanted to bring it, NOT bleeping me'. She's TWO YEARS OLD YOU MORON. I just stood and watched, she didnt care who saw or heard her. She called her pathetic and annoying.

I could never, ever dream of speaking to my daughter like that but If I ever did, I'd hope somebody would walk over and smack me in the gob.
How can someone speak to & treat a baby like that. The little lass was mortified.
It makes me really sad. What a horrible thing for me and my girl to witness on such a gorgeous day as today.

nothing like setting an example to your children is there

Sadly not that uncommon. And people wonder why children seem to have no respect for teachers/police/doctors etc. these days.

I've seen a few shocking things recently involving parent and child. Probably the one that stands out was the woman (term used very loosely) trying to pop headphones into the ear of her 7 week old so it could listen to some crappy happy hardcore music from her phone.
She actually seemed to wonder why it was crying.

Really what chance do some of these kids have when they are brought up by parents who can barely function themselves as a member of society let alone try to raise and instill some values in children.

I see people like that on the bus, swearing in front of their children, dragging them around like they are nothing.
One mum the other day was letting her 3 year old climb on to a bin and suck it's fingers and it was really dirty !
They should be ashamed of themselves !

one word for it gob s...e.

If that went on in public loud enough for kryogenik to hear, I dread to think what kind of thing happens in the privacy of their own home.

Poor little thing

[Hom3r]

I never swear in front of any kids.

But if I say Bugger, Dam in front of my nephew or niece my sister gives me a filthy look.

I must say although I find the idea uncomfortable people like this make a good case for limiting the breeding of people to those that are likely to at least attempt the effort necessary to bring up a child.

Unfortunately that is unworkable as one we would never agree on the criteria and two who would we trust to manage it without abusing the power
