Hello!

One mum’s claim of an ‘unspoken rule’ around leaving certain parking spots for mums has divided the internet, with one woman slamming ‘entitled’ mothers.

Mum Stefany shared a video of a supermarket car park, showing an empty spot right next to a trolley return bay.

“We all have the same unspoken rule, right?” she says.

“If you’re shopping without kids and this spot is open, it’s not for you. That’s for a mum with their kids that needs to unload right next to the cart drop, right?”

She explained in her caption that ‘it’s a safety thing’ and that these spots should be left for mums shopping solo with their kids.

But her video didn’t seem to strike a chord with other shoppers, who say they’ve never heard of the rule, and would continue to park in those spots. And one particular woman was so annoyed by the car park ‘unspoken rule’ that she made her own video, calling out ‘entitled’ mums – and it’s been viewed more than two million times.

“No. I can park in that spot if I want to without children,” Kendall begins. “It is not an assigned or designated parking spot.”

“The entitlement of ‘mamas’ like you is exactly what makes me want to say I’m going to exclusively use the handicap-accessible stall in bathrooms.

“I’m going to continue to park wherever the hell I want,” she concludes.

Interestingly, her video received a mixed response, with some supporting her stance, while others called her out.

“I hope when you have kids you NEVER find a close parking spot, every door you go through with a stroller opens in, and I hope your child has an atomic blowout in the middle of grocery shopping,” one mum commented.

While another wrote, “As a new mum, who is stressed I really wish they would designate some of these spots. It’s not entitlement it’s just hard being a mum.”
