You could wait until your child is done lying on the floor, not buy them anything, and perhaps punish them in a civilized way later. Or carry them out of the store if you're in a hurry. Violence is always abuse and should not be tolerated.

I would agree. I think for parents in a hurry an inconsolable child is challenging in a public setting. As you say carrying them off might be the best option at that point, if you have your hands free —which may not be the case.

> You could wait until your child is done lying on the floor If your kid is a shit, and you bring them into my day and allow them to continue being a shit, well, you are a shit.

  No, your convenience is not more important than the welfare and bodily integrity of a child.

    If your idea of civilization is that we can reward, through inaction, being totally uncivilized, then I reject your civilization.

      The child does not get a reward. That's the whole point.
