Ask any single mom of young kids whether its a breezy walk in the park juggling parenting and work or studies… It’s likely many will say “absolutely not!” Childcare doesn’t come cheap, not everyone has family or friends that can help out, and let’s be honest, even child-free people can get tired after a long day at the office, or a night in front of the books.
An annoyed child-free man reached the end of his rope when his classmate decided to bring her loud toddler to college. The kid spent the lecture dashing around the room, disrupting students who were trying to complete their thesis. To make matters worse, the mom expected the guy to keep an eye on her kid when she left the room. He’s livid and feels her actions were totally inappropriate. Bored Panda had an extensive chat with him to find out more. We also reached out to Lisa Smith, parenting coach and founder of The Peaceful Parent, for her take on the matter.
