I don't know shit about parenting and won't claim to since I don't want to care for children nor raise them myself.
I do however know shit about behaving in public spaces.

That is not behaving in a public space.
The other night I was in CVS preparing for Skogafoss' trip to AUS. We were picking up some sundries for her. Two lines, the couple in the left line were purchasing their items. The child (I cannot tell how old she was but she was clearly obesely overweight and inappropriately dressed for whatever age) reached down to the candies, picked up some items and put them into the laser scanner. Not once, but several times. This caused the cashier to have to get the card to void the purchases. The mother looked over said,"Stop it. What are you retarded?" The child continued the behavior. The cashier returned and had to come back around to get the items to rescan them for voiding. The mother said something not discernable, picked up her purchase and told the child to follow her out the store. No apology to the partrons or cashier.
That is simply poor public behavior at any age.
