parent spots in carparks
BorisSpencer:
I park in them, I am both a parent and a child, so there should be no problem.
muddysteve:
lets be honest if the "kids" are under the control of their parents why should the be knocked over? i dont walk down the street with my dog 6' in front or behind me, he's next to me which is where the kids should be.

muddysteve:
couldnt agree more
theres a big difference in my mind between a disabled bay and a "parent and child" bay which lets be honest started off as a supermarket gimmick

I think that parent and child spaces are a waste of space. If you choose to have kids- deal with it and just fit in, dont expect everyone else to have to make special dispensation for you. I already have to pay tax for your kids to go to school (and yes I was a child once so I know you will have made your contribution to my education). I agree if you have to have the spaces, put the spaces at the opposite end of the carpark- away from my car hopefully preventing kids from damaging it. I think its petty the way that people seem to think that because they have kids others should make way for them, It was self inflicted so just deal with it- if you dont want the hassle then dont have kids.
On another note- the more kids people in the world have the deeper into the environmental crisis we fall- don't bother, save the planet, save your money and buy yourself something nice with the cash you save (i seem to remember £100K between the ages of 0-16 being quoted somewhere) I can think of a load of stuff that I would buy with 100k.
Oh yeah and if kids do happen to be whinging and screaming in shops then fully expect other members of society (me included) to either tell you to control your kids......or tell them directly to shut up.
And yes I do park in parent and child spaces
Rant over.
