I'm sorry you had such a bad day, Cathy, and I hope you're feeling better now. Migraines are the worst!!

I have to agree, I just can't stand unruly children, but I also agree that the parents are to blame. It's really sad how easy-going parents are these days (and how sad it is that kids are "parents" of kids more and more these days too, which doesn't help the problem). I can't even count how many times I've witnessed some atrocious behavior by a little kid, and the parent did nothing about it. I'm scared for the future, when little kids are running all over their parents like that in this day and age...*sigh*

On the other hand, parents who do care and take responsibility of their kids are to be congratulated. I know it’s not easy. It does make me smile when I see little kids being polite and doing good things. Too bad more parents don't want such results...I don’t think bad mannered kids are cute, nor are kids who swear!!
