I'd definitely locate and inform their place of employment.

That would upset me and I would want to get out my baseball bat. However, being a reasonable human being, I might offer my assistance.

How would you feel if you was in a store an saw a caregiver with her patient,an she starts yelling an screaming at them in front of you what would you do?

How do you know it was a "care giver" ?  I saw a woman with a man and about 3 kids at Walmart a few weeks ago.  One of the girls told on her sister.  The woman turns around and jumps on the other girl and raises her hand and the kid blocks her face with her hands and ducks back.  This tells me this kid gets hit a lot.  I have no problem with spanking a kid but obviously this kid is use to being hit in the face.

I have seen what I assume are children or grandchildren with older adults and they talk to them like they are trash.  There is not a lot you can do.  All you can do unless it is physical is mind your own business.  You stick your face in something that is nothing to you and you are liable to get the snot beat out of you or get shot.  It is the world we live in.

To be honest I wouldn't do anything.  I'm not one to get in peoples business.  If it was getting physical I'd call the police.  Other than that I'd stay out of it. People are crazy you don't know what might happen if you try to intervene.  They might turn around and start attacking me.

Sad but true.  You also do not know the situation.  I would have to have more details about this situation to be able to give an answer.

Honestly, I would have to be there to know for sure.  It's hard to say without actually experiencing the situation.  It's not that you gave a bad description, it's just hard to react to this thoroughly through a description.

Verbal abuse in public?  Never okay.  That caregiver might not be equipped to care for people who have special needs.  I would do my best to report it.

:heart:



Have a great day!
