Crying baby in the store

[champagne_rose]

 When you see a mom pushing her baby along in a store while the baby cries and yet she doesn't pick up her child, what do you think? Does it bother you or do you shrug it off?

LOL wow the replies actually are surprising me!! Most everyone is so understanding!!

Me too.

Quoting champagne_rose:

 I think maybe they just need to shop and they have tried everything but moostly I don't think much.

That they probably have tried everything or colic? I don't know.

I don't care.

My oldest was a crier unless he was nursing until he was 3 months old, so I can relate to a mom whose baby might be inconsolable and she has sh*t to do.

I think it's time to go home.

 What if that is the only time they could squeeze in to shop?

Btw, I didn't have a huge crier but I sympathize with those who do.

I don't pay much attention, but sometimes I feel for the mom cause I've been there.

 I do sympathize too. I don't think much about it really(like judgmental) but I do feel bad for the mom.

I try not to let it bother me but there was one incident that did kind of touch a nerve.

This woman was shopping around with her brand new baby in her car seat - the baby couldn't have been more then just a couple of weeks old. The poor thing was screaming HYSTERICALLY! I dunno if she was hungry, if her little tummy was hurting, I obviously do not know the reason for her cries but hearing her cry just broke my heart. And the baby only got louder, To the point where I could hear her cries from across the store. 

The poor child obviously needed something but the mother simply ignored it to shop. Well...alright-e then! Something I deff would not do but...I guess I can't say anything, its not my child. Poor thing!
