    Ahhh but at what age are children supposed to be before people stop parking in them?? :D:D

    I'm not trying to be argumentative by the way just wondering.

  • you would think so but, if there are no disabled bays then disabled people have a right to park in parent and childrens bays.

    Surely if the child was well behaved and the parent had control of their child, the carpark wouldnt be a problem. Just my view, parents can help having children people cant help illnesses

    at 3 years old there not bad children just have there own mind an trying to control one with half a dozen bags of shopping in a car park is a nightmare sometimes

    Unless they are disabled, and the disabled bays are all full, of course. No reasonable parent would complain about that, would they?

    Of course they wouldnt , but its usually the other way round , never enough child an toddler parking bays cuz people without children park in them

    Crikey, yet more parents who presumably only ever park in car parks where there are P&C spaces close to their destination, because they cannot trust themselves or their children not to have a serious incident.

    Do you people honestly never, ever park anywhere other than at supermarkets, in P&C spaces? How do you manage?

    It's a good job you didn't have your children 20 years ago, when there were no P&C spaces, or even more, when you may (God forbid) have had to walk or get the bus to the shops.
  • its not unreasonable for a parent to walk across the carpark with a trolley and the child sat in the trolley, there would be no reason for accidents.

    Believe it or not, the p/c spots are there for use of a parent with a child up to the age of 12 :eek:
    I let my mind wander and it never came back!

    of course parents park in other places , but have you ever tried getting a child in the back seat of a 2 door car in a normal space , sometimes theres hardly enough room to open the door
