Time Out

In the lobby this evening, a lady was trying to wrangle her two toddler sons. One was screaming and crying his eyes out. Unfortunately this group got on the elevator with me and two other guys. The screaming boy shrieked "Stupid Mommy!" and wouldn't shut up. The older boy agreed with his mom that the younger boy needed a time out. Man, if my kid called me stupid, in front of strangers.... Yes, I wish I lived in a family-free building.
