Parent and child parking! 12 and 9 year old?!

Just had a row with a woman in Tesco car park. I waited 15 minutes for parking - have to carry a fairly solid 6 month old to the shop (post cesarean - still not 100%!)

Anyway, this family were parked in child and parent bay with a 12 year old and a 9 year old. Both very capable of walking and opening doors! I commented that she was rude to park there, she said she was entitled to. Then her husband complained about me to the management!!!

Wtf!? Ainu??! Parent and child surely means young child that needs assistance??!

Parent and child spaces.

Let's break that down for you.

She = parent.

12 year old = child.

9 year old = child.

Parent + child, yes?

I think she only parked there because SHE needed the extra room. Sorry, but true

And - fuck off.

goady fucker

Ive never gone to a supermarket and seen no disabled places available

Good for you. I have in numerous locations, all over the country.

FGS this pisses me right off. Its not a right its just a stupid ploy by supermarkets. Yes it maybe safer blah blah blah but you can park farther away and still be safe but have to walk a little. They have children - you have no more right than this family.

Get over it or you will have further challenges ahead. Soft play for example.
