There was no imminent danger, and the parents already had control of the situation.

It's inexcusable to want to help a child? Clearly you are joking... She's lucky she was just slapped? You are out of your mind...
How do you know that the parents had control of the situation - based on the what he described - the parents didn't have control.. dad was worried about the baby.. mom was having a tough time with the 2 year old... ChILD WAS SCREAMING _ Child screaming means there is no control of the situation.
Slapping someone trying to help is not acceptable behavior... and not something you want to teach the two year old - what happens when he slaps his sister for something -- well dad did it?
