Children of Privilege on Mass Transit

Children are wonderful
If they are your own or you're related to them
However when on a New York City bus
All bets are off whether they are your own or not

Mass transit is about getting people places
It's not about Romper Room,  babysitting or singing lessons
If you live here, you already are nodding in agreement
If you're just visiting , you're horrified

The little darlings use the bus experience
as a begging platform for everything they feel entitled too
Iphones, weekends in the Hamptons, pedicures, even for the dudes
Are you revolted yet, we've only gone 2 blocks

Bottom line
Kids of privilege suck and will grow up without any manners
They are loud, whiney and snotty
Call me a hater, I don't care, just do it quietly and in writing
