A shopper at a Colma store said she was punched in the face by mother after telling her to quiet down her child, who was throwing a tantrum.Natalie Bree Hajek-Richardson told KPIX 5 that she was in the checkout line of the Nordstrom Rack when a child between the age of 4 and 6 began throwing a loud tantrum.“It didn’t bother me that the child was throwing the tantrum, but the volume was very loud, it was hurting my ears,” Hajek-Richardson said.The shopper said she asked the child’s mother to quiet the child down, but nicely. That’s when things began going sideways."She came to the side of me and told me not to tell her child what to do. And I told her that I didn’t ask your child what to do, I asked you very nicely to calm down your child just a little bit,” Hajek-Richardson recalled.Hajek-Richardson said she then told the mom off. “I told her to go to hell and she told me I’ll see you there,” she said.When Hajek-Richardson left the store, she said the mom followed her to her car. “Was asking me, ‘Where’d you tell me to go?’ So I repeated again what I said to her, and I told her that I told her to go to hell,” she said.Video shows a woman in a red shirt walking toward Hajek-Richardson before they both end up on the asphalt. The victim said she was punched twice in the face.
people like this cunt are what make my blood boil, not the weak parents that just sit there, it's the cuntbags that support their child's shit behaviour.

Some people are shitty parents.What else is new?

You can't hit them in today's world. You can't yell back or you'll be recorded on a phone. So what exactly can a parent do?Actually PARENT their children. Take them outside until you get them under control if they won't listen to you. It is more the store's fault for not kicking the woman out, though.Not sure why spanking is being brought up. I never had to assault my brothers for them to listen to me. I actually guide them appropriately and give them incentive to listen. If you have to spank a child, you have failed.

Not saying the punch was justified, but sometimes you can't just shut up a screaming child at the flip of the switch. The majority of the time you just have to ignore their behaviour, which a lot of people don't seem to understand.

Anyone else making a scene would be asked to leave just the same.

Their mental and behavioural faculties aren't fully developed yet. They aren't aware that is unacceptable conduct in public.
Yes, that's exactly why a parent should remove their disruptive child from the area. It's called being a decent human being.

Except they DO have control over the situation.
They can either get their kid under control, or leave.
Literally nobody wants to listen to a baby throw a tantrum or scream.
If the parent has the ability to remedy the situation in one form or another, they should.
