    more signs, please

    If certain parents were more responsible about their children, no one would be so fed up as to post signs about strollers or behavior.

    The fact that explicit signs are now needed for what used to be unwritten but widely known 'rules' of polite society is appalling.

    The hilarious part is that people now become 'offended' by others asking for/expecting basic decent manners.

    Personally, I find it 'offensive' that we have to put up signs asking parents to ACT LIKE parents.
