I hate seeing two parents and two kids on a shopping trip clogging up the aisles and acting like it's a day out. Send one parent while the other adult looks after the kids and leave me to get around the shop without getting irate. Shopping is not a family activity.
an addendum to this: brightly coloured sweets and small toys on conveniently placed two foot tall shelving at the checkout guaranteed to incite a 120dB tantrum unless the item is purchased...fuckers
put fucking brussel sprouts and Marmite there instead: the end of impulsebuyinducedtantrumsâ„¢
