I have no issue with the spaces for parents with children but why are they so close to the shop. I am a pensioner and I have some difficulty in walking far but I often have to park a long way from the shop doors while fit and able people can park close, why not put these spaces away from the doors? people choose to have children, why should that be a priority over me?

Squeeze 4kg baby out of yourself and let see how far you can walk, while you still bleeding for one month after.

@@Alexsamuilov what utter rubbish, my wife had two children and never suffered anything like that and neither did any of the women with children that I know but assuming that you are telling the truth about yourself, surely that does not affect parking because that would apply to anybody that has nad an injury, people with broken legs don`t get their own place to park and older people that struggle to walk don`t either. Women choose to have children and all that goes with that is expected. I stand by what I wrote.

Why is this an issue that requires debate? It is about curtesy. On private land, that supermarkets are, you can park in a disabled bay too. How many would do that? This 'Film' seems to be promoting parking in a parent and child spot for the sake of it. Whether you could get in trouble IS NOT the issue. Respect and tolerance is.

I always park in the parent and child spaces when I take my old mum to tescos each week..

[@hadj0587]

I only park in a child space if I have a child with me other than that, I won’t park there. It pisses me off when I see people parking in a child space without a child. Next time I see someone doing that, I’m so tempted to shame them all over social media. I saw a man the other day by himself parking in a child space and if I was on my own, I would’ve said something

[@markhampson3166]

Spaces supervised by private companies and parking firms etc. Fines etc at store of parking company discretion. It's not " illegal" to use them

[@lyndonwatkins1]

Apparently if all disabled bays are full you can park in a child parking space with a blue badge

What about 8 months pregnant women can park car on family space 🤔?

[@Aprilbennett7378]

So you feel like because your pregnant you should be able to park closer than me? You park with everyone else you ain’t special. Don’t wanna walk so far while pregnant? Then maybe you shouldn’t have got pregnant, that’s ur fault. You don’t get to park closer than me just because you couldn’t keep ur legs closed😂 park with everyone else and woddle ur ass in that store, let that be a lesson in contraception and safe sex, should have paid attention in sex education class

[@Aprilbennett7378]

Yea I definitely wouldn’t have paid that ticket. I actually think it’s kinda bullshit that they get their own spaces. Those close spaces are for disabled people who have trouble walking far or are in a wheelchair. These parents chose to have kids that’s their problem, if they didn’t wanna walk far with kids maybe they shouldn’t have had kids🤷🏻‍♂️ but no let’s take the spaces from disabled people who ACTUALLY need them and give it to someone who can walk just fine but couldn’t keep their legs closed🤦🏻‍♂️ fuck is the world coming to. Don’t let me ever see one of these spaces cuz imma park in it just to be an asshole😂 have fun walking from the back of the parking lot with all ur kids, let that be a lesson in contraception and safe sex😂

Idiots like you like to make a completely irrelevant argument 😂 we don’t care about distance, we care about space. We’re the spaces are built is not up to us.

I park in any space in a supermarket car park because last time I checked they weren't lords of land

[@jameslawson6354]

I always go and park in Parent- Brat spaces because they shouldnt be so entitled. They're not disabled so they can go park in a space like a normal person. The spaces closer to the stoore should be for disabled people not for terrible parents with entitled brats

[@TheZombifiedFairy]

So when a car with children in it park next to you and ding your car up, please remember... at least they weren't entitled

[@ianexcalibur7096]

@@TheZombifiedFairy So it's only parents and children that ding your cars, I suggest you look on TH-cam at adults denting people's cars on dashcam

[@TheZombifiedFairy]

@@ianexcalibur7096 I didn't say they did. I AM saying that parents have bulky things like prams, carseats, diaperbags, etc to get out of the car and can not always account for the door. Kids are wild and don't watch the door at all. That extra space would help them.

[@jameslawson6354]

@@TheZombifiedFairy They shouldnt have a space that is so so close to the store hough. I don't think that you understand. They are NOT and I repeat NOT disabled. They shouldn't have that space. Parents are so entitled nowadays. They shouldn't be taking up wider spaces closer to the store and no not really. They can put the pram in the back of their car and unload it that way

[@TheZombifiedFairy]

@@jameslawson6354 so put them throughout the parking lot. It ain't that hard to just randomly dispurse them throughout
