    Wow, and the mom walked away?

    I bet if her kids were wreaking her stuff, they would get a spanking. And a yelling. And their tv smashed so they learn their lessonl.

    Hey, mom, this isn't America's Funniest Home Movies, no one is going to give you the $ prize for your kids being "cute".
    Time! Time! Time is what turns kittens into cats.

    Don't teach me a lesson; all I learn is that you are an asshole.

    I wish porn had subtitles.

      The problem is our society works like this nowadays:

      1) Mother scolds children in public

      2) Some dickwad calls cops on mother claiming "child abuse"

      3) CPS gets involved and situation gets more out of hand from there

      I had a group of kids in the other day that absolutely trashed my store. Knocked down a bunch of games, beat the crap out of my Rock band display, threw all my guitars on the ground and took every item off every hook of an accessories display.

      Did the parent with them say a WORD to them? No.

      I think some parents deliberately unleash their kids on us so they can mess up our store and not the house in which they live and that way mommy and daddy don't have to deal with the mess...

      ...I DO.

        You just described my whole day. I hit the wall 30 minutes before the end of my shift: lost all ability to think.

          Oh my bog I would have never gone behind a counter or desk at a store. The whole store would have heard me once my Mom got a-hold of me.
          Because as we all know, on the Internet all men are men, all women are men and all children are FBI agents.

            Did anyone see these hellions while they were at their wrecking? Anyone at all?

            I spot kids trying to trash stuff all the time and I never hesitate to speak up and tell them to knock it off, usually asking if that's their stuff. And if some mom wants to get into it with me, I'd tell her off, too, for not watching her kids.

            We all have to pay for stuff that gets damaged or destroyed, and I'm not going to put up with it, and it baffles me why anyone else does.

              Or worse explained away with that irritating sentence, "But they're just being kids!"

              As in the context of "Excuse me, your children are stabbing me and I am dying."

              "They're just being kids!" or "Kids will be kids." -.-
              "They're not being kids, they are being pains-in-the-ass."

              If my parents could keep my sister and me reigned in, there is no reason why any other parent cannot do the same thing (my parents were constantly getting compliments on how well behaved we were).

                What I hate is going into some place where the shit head parents have dumped their kids and my kids think it's ok to be brats, because every other kid is. Homey don't play that though, sorry buckaroos.

                  We had one in the fitting room on Saturday. Jumping and squealing.

                  THUMP. THUMP. THUMP. THUMP. **Squeal***

                  For 30 minutes. Oh, and "I love myself!" "I know honey, it's important to love yourself!"

                  THUMP.

                    "Kids will be kids."
                    "Not here. Here, kids will behave or kids will be kicked out."

                    Ah, the things we wish we could get away with saying.
