I also think parents just love taking their kids EVERYWHERE to prove a point. Even to places they know they shouldn’t really be and then getting some kind of pleasure from the misery it causes others around them. Like they almost want someone to say something or challenge them on it so they can go nuts/write to the daily Mail.
Good example. I’m going on cruise mid June to the med area. Temperature is about 30* historically and am in a group for it on Facebook. The excursions are pretty much all to historic sites that involve 10+ hour days, lots of hiking in the heat and some dodgy underfoot conditions. The descriptions all clearly state they are all tough going. Que some knobhead mother piping up in the discussion group for them “which of these would be best to take a 4 and a 1 year old on.” Has to resist the urge to say Clearly absolutely none of them, love

, stay home and go to Center parks.… So I left the group instead. Parents like this are only there for themselves. Their kids shouldn’t be suffering in a hot 10 hour day of history and hikes just because she wants to pretend her life is the same and put pictures of them on Facebook or something
