Screaming Kid

>This is just a quick one, the local radio is asking what would you do with a child has tantrums when you're out shopping. Toddler tantrums. What would you do? If someone complained of your child to you. Just because you're doing a food shop. And your floor hugging, screaming child will not stop. Two things spring swiftly to my mind. I'll tell you if you can spare the time 1. First I would just look amazed. And join my child, on the floor. Screem a bit, wave my feet in the air. That should make them complainants stare. 2. The other thing I might just do. If I had enough of it. Like you. I put a pound/dollar in compliant's hand. Then say keep him/her for half an hour. Quickly get on with my food shop. But collect my kid I would not. I'm joking really, I would only do 1. Honest I would. (The mad author)<
