According to polar news reports, a video of two women arguing fiercely on a high-speed train in Chongqing has attracted attention recently, and the topic of "crying woman and Bao's mother on the baby high-speed train" rushed to the top of the hot search. Some netizens said that parents should manage their children well in public; Some netizens also sighed: the baby is too young to understand, and should be more tolerant and understanding.
People are watching this fight over babies crying because it often happens around us. Since the trip may be crying, it is neither realistic nor reasonable to let the mother take the child out. Whether or not you are pregnant does not affect the right of the woman in the front row to want a quiet journey.
Seeing this news, I couldn't help but think of my experience of taking my baby out of the house, and sometimes I had to take a high-speed train or plane. In a relatively confined public space, the child's noise will sound harsher and difficult to shield. And the concentrated gaze projected around me will make a "novice with a baby" like me shine on the back.
Even if you do your homework before heading out, sometimes there will be accidents. The ear pressure during takeoff and landing, the frequency of high-speed rail acceleration, may make the baby feel uncomfortable, and its expression - only crying. Therefore, I deeply understand the helpless anxiety and helplessness of this mother holding the baby in her arms.
Of course, this does not mean that parents can let their children cry. Going to the nursery to feed, distracting the child, standing up and holding the child for a walk are also some of the ways to do so. However, there are times when it fails. At this time, it is difficult for the surrounding passengers not to be affected, especially when they want to sleep and have difficulty falling asleep, but the solution is certainly not "noisy".
Adults are not babies and have the ability to control their emotions, and when the cry of the baby overshadows the scolding in the carriage, it is not the child who is embarrassed. Because there are many ways for adults to solve the problem, they really have their own special circumstances, and they can also ask the flight attendant to help change seats.
In recent years, the railway and aviation departments have also piloted some countermeasures, such as the installation of silent cars on high-speed trains and baby kits equipped on aircraft. These are not only to provide travelers with a more comfortable travel experience, but also to build a childbirth-friendly society.
Understanding and tolerance are not only the slogans of civilized society, but also come from the personal practice of each individual; In a child-friendly society, children should not be representatives of "noise" and "trouble". At that time, "new parents" will take their children out and leave without worries.
