Kind of that damned if you do, damned if you don't situation going on. I don't disagree that hitting is an ineffective form a discipline, I was just listing an example.
When I am out in public and doing whatever I am doing, I frequently see a parent with a kid in a stroller that is just... SCREAMING. Honestly, when you're standing in an aisle picking yourself up a product and the parent next to you have a stroller with a screaming and bawling child in it and seemingly no awareness that the child is screaming, I want to flip a cork. This is becoming WAY too common. =/
I see that kid in pram screaming thing frequently at like...10pm...which raises the question what the fuck are these parents doing walking around with young kids this late? Otherwise, during the day, UmI've been that adult ignoring the screaming...but I've also been rushing to get them the fuck out of there.
Sometimes it puts me off wanting kids. Then I think MINE would never be like that.
Then I remember that while some stuff is learnt behaviour, temperament is luck of the draw :/
Is it normal to want to scream at screaming children?

Blah badly worded, didn't mean to imply you did.
