People used to tolerate whiny kids, now iPad and iPhones have solved the problem.

Now you can hear a groan from nearby tables whenever you take your family to a plane or restaurant

There’s also a lot of people who willingly don’t have kids and some of them think children are dogs which talk and scream instead of barking. Another is the type of parent who has a couple children with the gene of compliance active and think they’re literally gods of parenting and if your child misbehaves it’s your fault.

iPads and iPhones at max volume are arguably more intrusive.
