Stranger slapped crying child at store

[AAAAA]

dude, dont you get it? the kid was 2....2 .............. 2 year olds cry...it's what they do, it's there job!!

true
the child could have been teething, Yes even at 2 years old.

[toys2cool]

by the way how is this the mother's fault in anyway, It has nothing to do with the parents if a 2 year old just wants something and starts to cry for it

[bobbait]

You are absolutely right. I do not have any kids by choice. I really blame the parents for not teaching their kids better to begin with.

I would've beat the crap out of that old farts ***! let someone touch my child

[livnxxxl]

Even though I do not have any kids I get it. I realize that people that do have kids want to protect them and watch out for their best interests.

It's never been "the standard" to hit other people's kids.

Personally when I see/hear this stuff going on, I emphasize
with the parent----I wouldn't even THINK of what that guy did
let alone DO it. Geesh.

Was it a "hit" or was it just a slap? There is a BIG diference. If I hit you you would defiitely feel it. If I slapped you...you would live to tell about it. I am not for sure I was not there to witness what actually took place. I am just going by what the story read.

Sure don't sound like you have any kids triple x. The world looks a bit different when you do.

If anyone was threatening my kids, no matter how off they were behaving, I would have told them to back off. If they had actually struck one of my children, you would be reading the story about the guy that punched the geezer out at Wal-Mart instead.

Personally, I love the scene in one of Jim Carey's movies "Me Myself and Irene" when he is dunking that screaming little girl in the water fountain. Wrong answer F-face!!

Some kids are smart enough to know exactly what they are doing and they also know that in most cases nothing will ever be done to them as a result. I bet it was a complete and total surprise to the kid that something actually did happen this time. Even know it was the wrong thing to do by todays standards. Perhaps the kid will think twice the next time it starts acting a fool in public.

Since I don't have any kids myself, I have to slap other people's.

Man, it's something we've always wanted to do...but most of us have that Filter that stops us.

My problem is with the mom for letting this happen at all. if someone approached or even said something like that to one of my three , I would have been all over them . Some older people are just grumpy , but he would have met his maker with me.

you just can't go around hitting other peoples kids. you don't see me drop kicking your kids for talking when i'm trying to watch a movie. even if i have thought about it.
