Or, and, follow me here, since this is apparently really difficult for you, but...

Maybe we just shouldn't be judging people that we don't know at all, when we have literally no information or knowledge about them?

That isn't how life works. Everyone is being judged every time they interact in public. Do as little as you can to negatively impact anyone.

I'm not saying I know. That's the point. Why would I assume the worst? What I do know is how hard it is and that we all have bad days no matter how good a parent is.

These people aren't yelling at you. They aren't doing anything to you. They're not taking their kids out to put on a show for you. You do not matter to them in any way and they shouldn't matter to you in any way either. You don't know them. You don't know anything about them or their kid. You don't know what they're doing, what they've been doing and what they plan on doing.

What makes you think you have the knowledge or experience or wisdom to judge anyone 'failing to raise their kids' because something on a surface level bothers you?

I'm not an expert, but you just kind of have to figure out for yourself whether this looks like a bad day or a consistent problem. Taking a poorly behaving child out can be an inconvenience for everyone. I wouldn't want to see an adult running around and being loud.

And that's the problem. People forget that our personal lives don't matter to strangers, so keep things quiet and personal in public.
