Sitting on a bus (long journey). The woman opposite me is texting or whatever on her phone while her two DC are making an unholy racket - screeching and yelling and running up and down the bus. You can see the annoyance on all the other passengers' faces - well, I can, she can't because she's completely ignoring the chaos the DC are causing. This has gone on for 20 minutes, getting steadily louder.
If you're the type of parent who lets, or even encourages, your DC to be as loud and 'expressive' as they like at home, fine. But surely in public you should (as I did with DD) tell them to behave decently? Especially on a long bus journey ffs. Maybe they're tired/bored but even if they are, surely mum should be doing SOMETHING not just ignoring them completely?!
Rant over.
