Considering I'm a teacher, I do it constantly. I'm serious it becomes a natural instinct. If I see a child behaving inappropriately I will say something. I have had parents be all like "why are you saying this" and I point blank tell them "well your child was doing this, this and this in a public place" and walk away.
Some might consider me bitchy for doing this but I'm not going to stand by and watch a child A) hurt themself B) hurt others C) being plain disrespectful in public.
You know strangers wouldn't need to say something if parents would, I don't know start disciplining their children. Or even better, watching their children while in a public place.
