Something like this happened to me 40plus years ago. My oldest son who was around 4 started to “pitch a Fit” in Walmart. I got down and was Eye to Eye to to him and threaten to spank him in front of everyone if he didn’t ‘knock it off!. That was it! He shut up and behaved after that.

That is a prime example of why we see many in the younger generation act he way they do today. Riots, unruly protests and no respect for authority.

I go in walmart and see kids screaming, having a fit or crying out for their moms and what is mom doing? She is on her stupid cell phone. I wish these parents would get off the phone and be a parent.
