A vignette on the high-speed rail A conflict sparked by a child's noise
On February 19, on a high-speed train from Beijing to Zhuhai, there was a small conflict. Speaking of which, this is a really interesting little story.
On that day, the carriage was crowded, and everyone either closed their eyes to recuperate, or lowered their heads to play with their mobile phones, or talked softly. Suddenly, the calm atmosphere was shattered by the sound of a child crying. It turned out that an elderly man sitting in the back row was with a child, and the child probably was bored or wanted to attract attention, so he began to cry in the seat.
At first, the surrounding passengers chose to endure it, after all, who doesn't have a child? However, the child did not seem to have the intention of stopping, but cried louder and louder, and began to move his hands and feet. A young woman sitting in the front row couldn't stand it anymore and turned to the old man and said, "Can you take care of your children?" It's really unqualified. ”
The old man may also feel a little embarrassed, but there seems to be nothing he can do, so he can only helplessly answer: "I can't control him, you can help me take care of it." As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the carriage became even more tense.
At this moment, the young man sitting next to the woman also joined the "debate". He said, "I was slapped in the face by this kid just now, and my ears are still ringing." Hearing this, both the old man and the young woman were stunned.
The flight attendant also noticed the movement and came over to persuade everyone not to make loud noises, so as not to disturb other passengers. However, the conflict has escalated, and the emotions on both sides are a little excited, and neither is willing to give in first.
In the end, the site of the conflict had reached Zhongshan Station, and the two sides decided to get off the train at Zhuhai Station to continue their "debate". After getting out of the car, it is unknown how the matter will be resolved.
In fact, such things are not uncommon on high-speed rail. Children are lively and curious by nature, and it is inevitable that there will be some small movements. However, as a parent, you should educate your children to be respectful in public and not to disturb other passengers.
At the same time, as passengers, we should also be more understanding and tolerant. After all, it's not easy for everyone to go out. If you encounter a similar situation, you can try to remind the parents kindly, or ask the flight attendant for help.
Overall, the conflict, while somewhat unpleasant, reminds us that in public, we should all follow certain rules and respect the rights and interests of others. Only in this way will our travel be more enjoyable and smoother.
