Off the topic of footie entirely. Seen as it's the end of the football season, I wanted to get other user's takes on social etiquette, especially with children in social settings.
For example I am sure we've all been out either in a restaurant venue or something similar and there are people around that simply have no etiquette. At what point is enough, enough? One thing I can't stand is when there's a family out with a bunch of really badly behaved, screaming kids and yet the parents do nothing.
Is it rude to ask the parents to tell their kids to behave? Or are they youngsters so it should go un-noticed? The same can also apply to large groups of men and women who are out drinking or eating in a nice restaurant. Don't get me started about children on planes either!!
If someone is spoiling your evening or experience, when should you confront the source of the disturbance?

Good points Blackpole and good to see you back.
These days most youngsters think they're gangsters and carry knives... it wouldn't happen if they were disciplined properly as kids. Even if it means battering it out of them.

The universal scientific and medical concensus is that hitting children leads to patterns of behavioural issues in later life. Such as delinquency and spousal assault.

I think the World Health Organisation, the UN, and UNICEF might just have a greater handle on this than us. So would be minded to accept their findings.
"A large body of research shows links between corporal punishment and a wide range of negative outcomes, both immediate and long-term."
"adult perpetration of violent, antisocial and criminal behaviour."
"increased acceptance and use of other forms of violence."

The same WHO who said Covid-19 hadn't transmitted to humans when it had been doing for weeks??
Beating up kids, as a parental figure, teaches them about respect and authority. Disabled or not. The reason we have knife crime now is because parents have gone soft.

No abuse would be constantly beating them or doing it for no reason.

Did you even read what you'd written?

You’re deliberately trying to twist my words. Cya.

During my boys early badly behaved days I sometimes had to take things off him (that he was about to launch through my neighbours greenhouse)
