Entitled family at the zoo tries to take my kid’s stroller parking spot

S

We took our toddler to the zoo last weekend. There’s a designated stroller parking area in front of the play zone. It was packed, but we squeezed ours in.

We come back an hour later to find another family has moved our stroller and shoved theirs in its place. Our diaper bag, snacks, and water bottles were tossed on the ground.

I confronted them and they shrugged: “Well, we needed space. Yours was in the way.”

I told them they could’ve asked any staff member for help instead of touching our stuff. The dad goes, “Relax, it’s just a stroller.”

Zoo staff overheard and sided with me, telling the family they could either move their stroller properly or leave. They stomped off muttering about “people being so uptight.”

Funny thing is, when we later walked past them, their kid was eating our kid’s snacks.
