I wasn't telling her when she could go. sheesh.But it is simple, if people and kids annoy you, go when there'll be less of them.
And my basic point still stands as well. Tolerate others in public. No one knows why some kids or adults behave the way they do, you simply can't see inside their heads and you don't live with them. No one has any idea if the stranger next to them does what they do for a reason.
No one can dictate who can and can't use a public place (short of the owners), and everyone else has as much right to be there no matter how annoying they may be. You, I, and everyone else reading is not any more important or special than anyone else - you simply can't ask everyone to compromise completely for you.
Simple example, I hate the sound of babies crying. The sound is physically painful to me. I don't expect parents to leave their babies at home because they inconvenience me or others. That would be silly and selfish.
Again, no one can decide how someone else decides to raise their child, provided that the child is not being harmed in any way.
But I suppose none of this matters to anyone as people have already made up their minds against being more understanding and trying to see the other side of things.
