Bus today: middle-class other and child (approx 6 or 7). Child blowing raspberries loudly and brave man (this is a London bus after all) asks him to stop.
So what does the mother do? Look embarrassed and hush the kid? Of course not, she tells the man off for daring to criticise her child and then says...
'Don't take any notice of him, he probably has problems'
AIBU?
To expect parents to discourage their rude offspring?
