Women drags child through mall

@boxerdc Said

Well, it certainly doesn't seem like a smart thing to do, but I've seen kids out in public act so badly that if their mothers dragged them off with a leash, I'd probably applaud.

I'm sure that any mother who has had a toddler throw a tantrum in a public place and relate to this womans frustration.

maybe..but at the same time, i agree with the person in the youtube video who says "how hard is it to just pick the child up?"

@skottie Said

so when a child does throw this kind of fit, is there a best way to handle it? spanking, time out, drag them on a leash?

I don't know how other parents handle it, but if my kids act up while we are out, I take them straight home.(shopping and such), leave them with their dad, then go back and finish my shopping. If there was a certain items they were looking forward to (new clothes or something else they needed)they would have to wait for another day, or not get it at all. I like the fact that I can go into the toy section with them and they know from the start that we are there to LOOK(ie: ideas for up coming B-days, X-mas)

I do feel for parents that have a screaming child with them. There are many different ways to handle the situation, but dragging a child like that has no place anywhere. If it comes to the point where the child is to be spanked(depending on the parents views) or needs a time-out, take the child to the washroom/nursery area.
