Today, I was standing in line at the checkout, and my children were arguing with each other. The guy in front of me sighed loudly and told me over his shoulder: "There're these things called condoms, you know." FML

Ask him if his parents know about them, rude prick.

I guess his parents didn't get the memo either

That was kind of rude, but it's really ******* annoying to listen to other people's kids screaming in the store kids are loud and can reach awful shrill pitches that just really *really* get to you. I know sometimes kids just act up and no matter how hard you try they just won't quit, but a lot of parents just don't even try to teach their kids any better and it can really get on your nerves. I don't know which category this fell into, if you weren't even trying to get them to calm down though, you deserved it. Otherwise yeah it's kind of rude but kids yelling can be really grating and sometimes you just snap, doesn't make it appropriate but it happens we're all only human and sometimes we just snap when something bothers us.

@70 We don't know if they were yelling or not. Arguments don't always involve yelling.

Yes, I can tell how well raised you were by your "shut up" comment.

Because apparently he was a perfect angel in his childhood.

"Funny, I'd guess your mom heard that a lot too..."

"Unforunately your parents hadn't heard of em either!"

Douchebag. Tell him his Dad should have pulled out early. People are quick to criticize other parents instead of minding their own business.

control your wretched devil children. ydi.

You're saying, that children aren't people themselves and don't have a personality, or they're not allowed to talk at all? Do you know the extent of the arguing, or if it was something she had tried to stop? She's standing in line about to leave, I wouldn't have cared. The guy seems pretty pissed off at life to throw an off handed comment like that. I've heard worse shit in line from adults, children arguing is nothing. Calm down and get off your high horse.

Justified. I hate when parents bring their kids or even entire family to stores while shopping then don't keep their kids in check. My brother and I never acted like that in public. We were quiet, well behaved children and not only my brother and I. I had several friends who were like this too. The comment was more along the lines of telling her to shut her kids up because they are disturbing others around them. If you can't keep your children behaved, don't bring them. Simple.

It's not that simple. I think it's funny that you think everywhere has to be perfect for you. Are you the type of person who yells at your server when the kitchen is backed up? I get the idea of not bringing your kids places until they're old enough to behave (although how are they learning if they just sit at home) and leaving when they're acting up is psych 101. However, that's not always possible. What if you've got a single parent, or the significant other is out of town for work? People can't always afford babysitters or they're not always available. I know for a fact that every uptight adult has come from being a child, yet so many act like shit towards kids. Grow the **** up, you're the adult, you're not waiting in that line your whole life, no matter how much you deserve to.

Really? You were such a perfect child that you never, ever misbehaved in public? I think you're looking at your childhood with extremely rose-tinted glasses.
