Not a parent but I read this and have my personal opinions, curious what others think about it.

I hate to sound like an old person with my "people these days rant", but it's just people being inconsiderate, and it's everywhere. People stand in doorways and elevators, make people behind them on the road wait while they turn from the wrong lane, cut in lines, run red lights because they don't want to wait, etc.

This is simply people being selfish and not wanting to parent, there's no difference. There are places where kids can run wild and be themselves, but it's not literally everywhere. Remember that the end goal is to raise not a child, but an empathetic, functioning member of society. So start teaching them early...

I definitely don't feel like we live in a world where too much respect for others in public has become a problem.
