According to the administration of the institution, mothers act unethically, forcing everyone to listen to the children’s roar.
“We have a cafe, not a nursery,” – with these words the woman, in whose arms the baby was sobbing without ceasing, for several minutes, was asked to go out the door. Like, maybe on the street the baby will calm down faster. According to the cafe administrator, he had to do this – customers complained that his establishment was getting too noisy, and he still wants to relax over a cup of tea and pie, and not sit with his ears closed.
“We very politely asked her to calm down the child, and then come back and continue drinking tea. But the woman chose to leave altogether, ”says the owner of the cafe.
On social networks, he was instantly hounded: after all, the mother and the child must have felt humiliated when they put her out in the cold. But local journalist Kelly Bradford came to the defense of the owner of the cafe.
“It’s just unethical for moms to force people to sacrifice their comfort. They are forced to sit and hear these screams simply because the mother is unable to distract herself from the phone. I often saw such situations: a woman pushes a stroller with one hand, in which a baby is straining, and with the other takes pictures of her cake and uploads it to Instagram, ”she said.
However, no one even listened to her. She was instantly called a “very unpleasant person”, a supporter of baby-chatting, and was advised to work on herself in order to show at least a little sympathy and sympathy for young mothers who are already having a hard time. After all, they do not voluntarily take their children with them – most often there is no one to leave the baby with, it is unbearable to sit at home all the time. And if the mother was forced to run around on business with the child in her arms, and suddenly they wanted to eat / drink / they froze?
It is difficult to judge who is right in such a situation and who is to blame. On the one hand, people are not required to be sympathetic to other people’s screaming children. On the other hand, why not really show a little compassion. After all, we were all once children.
Interview
What would you do if you were in a cafe with a roaring baby?
I would try to finish my coffee as soon as possible and leave.
Such tiny children should not be taken to a cafe at all. Or go where there are children’s rooms.
Nothing. I’ll cover my ears with headphones and listen to music.
Yes, if only the diaper was not changed right at the table, the screams do not bother me.
She will scream and stop. Children are sometimes really hard to calm down.
