Quiet please

Jason writes...

Dear Mom in Borders,

When your small child is repeatedly SCREAMING, that is not necessarily an indication that you should just wait it out and he/she'll calm down. If you're in a book store, please PLEASE just take your yelling, crying, upset child OUTSIDE. It will make everyone happier. Particularly if it seems like this behavior will continue for 20+ minutes.

ATTN: All parents
Add church to that list while we're at it. We all appreciate the fact that your kids have to be somewhere, but unless we're on a) an airplane, b) a submarine, or c) a spacecraft* please help us enjoy the few quiet places.

* - or some unholy combination of all three!

It's better if the kid is pulling things off of the shelves and causing problems not limited to aural. And the parents are making no effort to control their children.
