Shae, great post! I remember judging parents with kids until I had my own kids! I naively imagined my kids would not be like those kids. They would listen to my every word. Then I had kids and realized my kids were just like those kids sometimes even worse.

My kids have broken merchandise in store (which I’ve made sure to pay for), crashed into people while running, thrown mega tantrums. To an outsider, it just looks like the parents aren't teaching their kid's manners or proper behavior.

They don’t understand that kids DONT listen and have minds of their own!
