to expect better behaviour???

[scrappydappydoo]

Took dd's to chessington today - we had a great day but I was so shocked at the behaviour of some people - pushing in queues and on rides, shouting and swearing at staff who were only trying to do their job, rattling and banging the cages of animals and blowing loud whistles at them. It was constant not just a few isolated incidents - there really was no need for it - how am i meant to teach my kids manners if they don't see it around them

Don't take them to Chessington.

Sounds awful.

Unless you actually live in Chessington I wouldn't worry too much.

Very annoying and no excuse for the badly behaved people- but I am afraid our jobs as parents is to teach our children to behave well whatever.

"how am i meant to teach my kids manners if they don't see it around them"

Point out the badly behaved people and use them as an example of how NOT to behave
