Am I just sounding like an old fogey dreaming of the good ol days when I say...
When we were kids there was no way we'd be allowed to behave in public the way the kids here do.
The kids who just wander around the supermarket picking up and eating whatever they want, right off the shelves, without getting a nod from mum?
Or the kids who hold court at the dinner table, expecting that everyone and everything should revolve around them and their happiness, screaming for every little desire that they have?
Geez... If I did that as a kid I'd have got a swift clip over the ear. And I wouldn't have done it twice. When we were out, we behaved, and we knew what would happen if we didn't.
