Incident 1: Nursery Bully
Mummy and I were shopping at IMM. Halfway through, i felt hungry and Mummy brought me to the nursery room. It was off-peak, there was no one around using or queuing for the nursery and absolutely no one at sight.
After a while, probably 3-5 mins, someone tried to open the door. Mummy prompted that we were using the room and continued b.feeding. A minute later, another attempt to open the door was heard. Again, Mummy responded. This time replying to the woman outside that we need to use the room for 10 mins. Mummy was trying to be nice by letting her have an estimate timeline and was prepare to stop me from feeding if i'm taking too long. However, she sounded annoyed and grumble aloud "Why need so long? My baby also don't need to feed so long". Mummy was extremely patient and told her that i'm on b.feeding and was unable to rush me through it. Then came an unexpected rude reply saying that Mummy was selfish, taking so long to feed and preventing others from feeding. Mummy was triggered and told the woman there are other rooms around, 2 located at level 1 so she could go there if she doesn't want to wait. That woman then go ahead to display her b*tch nature and started calling Mummy names instead. Mummy was irritated by the rude exchanges and shooed her away as she doesn't want to waste energy quarreling. Wished Daddy was there and we don't have to be harassed in such manner.
Incident 2: Rude Couple
We using the parents' room at ION. Mummy just fed me for 5 minutes and someone knocked. Daddy responded and no one answered. Seconds later, an attempt was made. This time, Daddy opened the door. He saw a cleaner and a couple with 2 kids told daddy that the couple needs to use the room and gave him a funny look. As if he shouldn't be there and misusing the room. Daddy have to convince her by pointing at our pram. Immediately, the mother of 2 defended that they didn't knock. Yes, they didn't physically but obviously, they instigated the cleaner to. Otherwise, why would a cleaner knock when it was not time for cleaning and the room's occupied
Why are these parents so rude? Where are the basic courtesy? Don't they know how to find another room if one is occupied? For goodness, most malls i have been to have more than one nursery in them. Can one limit another on the use of the nursery?
It's disturbing to know that some people simply rude and demanding. Hope someone will enlighten them - When a room is occupied, it is taken and in use. Look for another room or wait till others are done.
