Sounds that make you Cringe

so i take it you have no kids. as a parent, lemme tell ya i find it hard to believe that any parent thinks a crying baby is cute. i know i don't, i find it embarrassing if it is my child. but what if you ordered food? what do you do then? it's one of those situations that you can only relate to once you've been in it.

however, i do believe if it gets out of hand you should excuse yourself and try to calm the child. but that isn't always possible. those of us with kids shouldn't need to be holed up at home like prisoners for 18 years just because your ears are sensitive.
