I think I have the same initial reaction due to bullying, with a particular distaste for teenage girls. But I can attest to the fact that not all kids are disrespectful on PT. Last time I went into the CBD on a train I got on at the same time as a group of school boys. I was prepared for noise and rumbunctiousness, but instead got to over hear them earnestly discussing how to determine when the train had reached the appropriate level of crowding that they should stand up and leave their seats for adults to sit down ๐คฃ
That's so good. ๐๐๐ That gave me a proper chuckle hahah
And yeah I think it's just my initial reaction but my second thought is that they're fine/most kids are good. I hate when they run in front of me, but also I remember being that age and either not having awareness of my surroundings or feeling particularly rebellious.
