So, about a year ago, I think it was two or three days before Christmas, I was in the city. My mother asked me to buy a list of things from the supermarket in our neighborhood. But I realized the supermarket did not sell fruits, vegetables, and other important items. So, I decided to go to the main market, which is located in the center of the city. I bought everything I needed, and when I was coming out, I saw a toy shop. At that time, I really wanted to make my little relatives happy, so I entered and was walking through the aisles looking at stuff. Suddenly, I saw a child with his mother. He grabbed a box of toys, and I think he really wanted to have a toy, but his mother said, "No way, we cannot buy it right now. You will come back with your father, and you can have whatever you want, but not now." I think he rejected what she said, and the mother told him, "Let's go, we should leave now." Instead of obeying, he started crying. He fell on the floor in a tantrum. It was loud and screaming, which caught the attention of people. They started looking disapprovingly at the woman. I think she felt embarrassed because her son was crying in public, and everybody was staring. She realized there was no way to quiet him down politely, so she started scolding her son and left the shop. I really wanted to help, but everyone was laughing. It was an embarrassing situation for her.
