Unruly children

I recently went to a local restaurant with my grandchildren to have a quiet supper. It didn’t work out that way! We placed our order and sat waiting when two small children came running up and down the isles screaming at the top of their lungs, while their parents didn’t say anything to them. After putting up with it for a while, because they were standing right beside me screaming, I said, “Hey, enough.” The little girl said sorry and they went down back to their parents. About 20 minutes the father came over and stuck his finger in my face and told me I had no right to correct his kids. I asked him to remove his finger from my face and he left it there and continued yelling at me! I told him I said “hey enough” in a low voice. He said you can’t talk to my kids and correct them. It’s so sad to see children do whatever they want and parents sit back and say nothing until someone else asks them to stop! If it had been my grandchildren or my children they would have been gone to the car.
