Help me understand the Earth concept of parenting:

[Deja Q]

Young couple are at the grocery store. In the cart is a young toddler that incessantly screams and wants to be let out to walk.

Parents keep telling the child to shut up, and even spanking him at one time - which prompts the kid to scream more loudly.

So they let him out. He stops screaming. (Hmmm, who just trained whom? :evilgrin: )

Thus, he goes on his grand journey of walking around aimlessly and slowly batting items off the shelves.

Mommy later finds toddler, and says "I've had it! You're going to the car!" as she yanks him away from the packages of junk "food" and drags him, screaming once again, to the car.

Let me guess - toddler will grow up to be a doctor, lawyer, drug dealer, stock broker, or lobbyist.
