I thought I’d be grumpier as I got older and not like kids as much, but in general I think a lot of them are nice and I don’t mind them. There’s always a few who are just terrible though. Something seems missing in their heads.
I do like kids, especially the grandkids, but often on our photo outings we come across screeching bairns whose parent donโt give a F and have to make a tactical retreat before I do something rash ๐
Throw some extra layers on them and they’ll be just fine. Plus, all the extra clothes will tire them out faster, so they’ll sit in the corner all the better ๐
I find as I get older my tolerance for noisy kids gets lower!

They usually are out in the cold when we come across them!

Sit them in a corner. Or kick them outdoors.

Says it feels like -27C out there this morning. That should toughen the little ones up.

My parents and grandparents said this, but only sarcastically when I was younger and they probably needed a break.

I think it was a gag they used in an episode of Arrested Development. It was the motto of some boarding school or something.
In general, it’s actually a good idea to stay quiet most of the time. But it makes you suspicious of kids in stealth mode.
