You don't need to take kids to the grocery store with you. I understand restaurants and movies and other places, but why do you need to take kids to the grocery store? Putting their filthy hands on the meat and veg.Order online if you can't get somebody to watch them for 2 hours.

What these r-slurs fail to grasp is fricking that bringing kids to the fricking grocery store is fricking how they learn to behave there later. The fricking kids misbehave in a fricking given circumstance and their parents correct them, that's called parenting. If you keep your kids locked in a fricking cage until they're 20 or whatever, they'll still be kids and be completely unable to interact with the fricking real world.
Add usual, (classic) Simpsons predicted this:

Teaches them how grocery stores work too. A kid who doesn't know how to shop for groceries will become an adult that doordashes every meal

I had a roommate who costco maxxed. Barely did any shopping outside of his monthly runs except for fresh meat/veg. It worked pretty well for him.

I am suspicious of online men who purport to hate children or have zero patience for them in any space (even a grocery store? the only place on earth that everyone needs to patronise?). Like why are you overcompensating so hard
Kids are funny, based, and sometimes cute and even the badly behaved ones are a form of chaos I can support because it makes twitterers angry

is it weird i don't see too many badly behaved kids in public? there was one kid like 3 months ago who threw a huge tantrum at the grocery store and you could hear him all throughout the store but that's pretty rare in my experience. is it because i only shop in the mornings when all the stay-at-home-moms with their well-cared-for kids are shopping and not in the evenings when the working moms are lugging their traumatized daycare kids around?

You gotta go to a walmart in a shitty neighborhood at 9:00pm to see the real shitty kids.

Depends on the parents. I saw a kid starting to have a sobbing meltdown in the supermarket, his mother getting all embarrassed and trying to hurry through the checkout. Turned out he'd lost his shoe and nobody noticed until a cashier came up to them and returned it, and he calmed down immediately. Not all kid tantrums are based on nothing, they just haven't learned how to communicate and have no ability to regulate their emotions.
I try and remember that kid when they're getting on my nerves in a public place. Because of course you also get parents who let their kids scream at brain-splitting pitches and volumes and do nothing about their behaviour.

lmao I don't take my kids to the grocery store because I have to, I do it because they have a great time and are learning about food and nutrition instead of purple drank n' sheet.

lol this neighbor really thinks people are gonna find a sitter or dump their kids on their parents just to go grocery shopping. It's very easy to keep an eye on kids in grocery stores and you can even sit them in the cart when they're small enough.
