I'm a parent of three kids. I'm a pet owner. I recently retired from management at a large company. I hope this answers your question.

Im talking from experience of dealing with shitty kids. Kids that break things, 10 year olds using the n word. You think these parents are going to be reasonable? I can tell you, no they're not. Maybe your kids are well behaved, maybe your a reasonable empathetic person and know how to live in a dense society. But it takes nothing to have kids and their are plenty of people that don't care about anyone else or what their kids do.

So what are you supposed to do?
