Well I guess it all depends on what my child has done...and I go from there! If they are cranky then if I can leave I do, if they are misbehaving I put them in a cart or I get down there and tell them what they are doing is wrong and if they dont stop they will go to their room when we get home. I have gotten quite a few looks while draging my 6 year old through Superstore kicking and screaming her head off! But I could really care less what other people think. I sometimes wanna say, "if you think you can do better....here you try and get her to STOP!!!" Havnt had to say that yet though;)
Well...I'd say you reprimand your child if they misbehave in public. Unless you're abusing your child physically or verbally, it's nobody's business how you reprimand your child. Sometimes people just feel the need to get into other people's business. I'd let it slide.
I always speak in a firm tone first and let them no that their warning if they do not stop doing what they were doing I simply leave the store. Just pick them them up and walk out. Others will look but anyone with children will understand. Also before you take the child into the store let them no they will not be getting anything or they will get something as a reward for being on their best behavior. Children need to no what is expected of them at all times if you choose not to buy them something just a simple prase is all a child really needs and remind them of their good behavior as often as needed during the outing.
