I work at Sesame Place as a ride operator. In the course of my job I see a lot of bad behaviour from little kids, and an equal number of bad parents. Well today I was working on one of the new rides in the new Elmo's World section of the park and some family (one boy, one girl) wait in line for a good 15 minutes to get on the ride. The family comes up and the little boy decides that he doesn't want to go on because he's scared. Not really a big deal, it happens all the time and I just let them out through the exit. The dad takes the kid and waits outside of the gate for the mom and daughter because they still wanted to ride. Well as soon as I play the boarding announcement, the kid changes his mind and wants to go on. The dad calmly tells him, "No, you made your choice. Now you have to wait patiently for your mom and sister", at which point the kid proceeds to throw a temper-tantrum. The kid's screaming and crying and smacking the railing in front of him. I turn my head to see what all the commotion is about, and next thing I know, SMACK! The kid slapped his dad across the face... textbook b1tch-slap. The dad's face get's extremely red, obviously controlling the urger to lay a severe beatdown on this little prick. Anyway, the family left... didn't see what happened later. Fun times at Sesame Place!
Not only do you get a story, but you get a bonus rant! Must be your lucky day. Seeing this along with all of the other bad behaviour made me realize what little sh1ts some kids can be. I'm not saying all kids are like that, but a lot of them are. And the horrendus parenting skills don't help either. /rant
