where i come from, everyone holds the door open for everyonenot doing so for anyone is frowned upon
Did you say something to her?
I usually only hold the door for woman, children and old people.If it's a man I'll usually just push the door open enough as I'm walking through so that he can get it before it closes.

Honestly the best thing you could've done is ignore the mother completely and kneel down to the kid and say "thank you so much for holding the door, you don't know how much I appreciate it."Then just give the mother a sidelook as you walk away.
Usurping the authority of the parent is actually a terrible thing to do

Fucking some girl and having a human come out of her doesn't magically give you dominion over that human. It makes the kid your responsibly, but if you can't handle that responsibility (being a bad parent), then you obviously don't need to be a parent.
