The woman was shocked by the encounter, although her post received a mixed response
Struggling parents know that meltdowns are a given with toddlers. And when your child is screaming, a kind word or an understanding look from a stranger is appreciated - but confrontations are not.
She wrote: "Yesterday I was coming home from a day out with my son, aged 3, on the train. We had been out all morning and he was in top form but by the time we got on the train, he was understandably tired. "A mum who was sat behind me heard all this and came to the aisle, bent down beside us, leaned in. I thought she was going to offer my son a toy or a sweet to cheer him up but instead and said, 'Do you think you could be quiet? My baby is asleep.'
Her post received a mixed response, with some saying the other mum should've been more understanding, and others saying the Mumsnetter was unreasonable.
