to leave a note on the car that parked in the parent & child spaces but did not have any kids..

[lovecamping]

so sunday lunchtime at the supermarket, i was with the kids in the car whilst dh gets some milk. a car parks next to us and a couple get out but had not kids or even car seats. i was so so when dh got back, i left a note 'where is your child?, dont you know how to read?'

that was bad of me was it?? what also inflamed was that 10 mins later, there was a porsche and another car also parked in the spaces. i saw all the people and none of them had kids.... WTF is wrong with people???

they took all the spaces, then as we're leaving, a woman comes along with NO children and parks where we left...

b***ds

I figure getting across a carpark with kids is waaaaaaaaaaaaay easier than getting 3 toddlers onto a bus, off a bus and half a mile to the shops.
Dunno why people complain about M&T spaces. Its a luxury, not a necessity.

I would have left a note too! (well maybe, depending if I had enough time or not!). I have twins and NEED to use those spaces in order to safely get my girls into our wide double buggy when I'm on my own. It makes me really mad that people park there without children, AND without any intention of getting out if they have children... they are a necessity for some people!

i havent read all the threads but wanted to add a while ago i think it was mother and baby magazine did something about this and had some posters made up that you could print off and copy, saying things like
'i know you are probably in a rush but do you realise oyu have inconvenienced a mother and her child by parking here.'

and some other points but they were really good although never had the guts to leave one on a car myself.

i dont know if they are still available but worth a look on the mother and baby website!

Good thinking or you could make your own with some really cheeky comments!!!
