I like kids... I just don't think I can eat a whole one.

You have every right not to like children who are ill-behaved,"

Why not hate parents who don't teach their children good manners?

The real problems:

1. Public Schools. Unlike most, I have never met a home-schooled kid I didn't think was a pleasure to be around.

2. Parents who think of children as fashion accessories, to be trotted out and adored by all.

3. Parents who think that their choice to have children should not impinge on their own comfort and pleasure. (Sorry, but you are supposed to be limited in the places you go with kids. Get a sitter.)

Some kiddies are obnoxious, mainly because of their parents. This is true.

However, Ms. Frost is also obviously an opinionated, egotistical b*tch.

Stand next to a store-screamer and scream at the top of your lungs. Trip the kid who keeps bumping into you "accidentally.

That's quite the mature attitude the author has, LOL

I should have known it would be a Presidio9 post. I like this lady. Just suffered through a terrible hour in church yesterday putting up with an insufferable little girl that belonged in the nursey. I blame her mother, not the little girl, btw.

Throughout history, people have said they're a gift from God,

Not true at all. Only in recent history have people come to cherish their kids, and many cultures still don't. Ever heard of swaddling clothes? throughout most of history kids really were "seen but not heard."

How much you wanna bet that these are the same people who not too long ago started calling the cops on parents for spanking their kids? Now they're living with the results and are complaining about that. Can't have it both way...

I don't think the women in this article hate kids so much as they resent the competition.

What's the solution?

The first thing is to get rid of all the child psychologists.

"Frost has other suggestions for training not just kids but their parents, who think they need to emblazon every T-shirt and mug with their kid's likeness; who think it's hilarious when their kid sits on the cat; who think everyone wants to see the video of junior emerging from the womb."

Yup!

We'll never forget the time we flew to CA. when our daughter was first born. We had her in her seat and learned a trick to make SURE she'd be quiet and swallow when the plane took over - dipped her pacifier into a mini jelly pot that you typically see in restaurants. She was fine. Not a PEEP!

Still a few rows up opposite us a staff reporter from the NYT was on the flight. If looks could kill we'd have been dead. When in the air he made it VERY CLEAR as he stomped by WHY he was moving his seat - a QUIET, baby was present. He simply hated babies.

I personally object to those who do NOTHING to control their kids. It's the fault of the PARENTS. They're typically WORSE than the kids.

Frost counts the ways: Kids who throw tantrums in the aisles of Toys "R" Us

If she has no kids of her own and hates other people's kids, what is she doing in a "Toys 'R' Us" store?

I agree that children should be kept out of "Sex Toys 'R' Us"

I agree with the author. I really do not like ill-mannered children. Also ill-mannered adults. But the ill-mannered child is created by the parents, and that is who I put the majority of the blame (and my dislike of) on the most.
