We were at a State Park this weekend. Park was packed. My wife and daughter and I were sitting around the campfire in the dark when the dogs started going berserk. There were kids walking through our campsite and, apparently, hiding from each other behind "our" trees. My wife asked a girl, maybe 12 years old, to please play somewhere else. She was told "you ain't my mama!"
A few minutes later, 3 or 4 of the little hooligans came back, obviously just to prove that they could do whatever they wanted. I got involved this time and a boy told me "you're not the police!" (I am, actually, but not in that county)
My voice raised a little higher than it probably should have at that point but they left, and I later heard an adult male tell them to "get over here" and they were gone for the night.
I can't wait for school to be back in session so I don't have to tolerate other people's rude, inconsiderate, unsupervised children. Rant over.
that's a large part of why we confine most of our trips to mar/apr/may and aug/sep/oct. we place a high value on peace and quiet and with the kiddies in school we usually find it. spring and fall weekends are still somewhat of a problem but we've found that many families confine their camping/RVing to holiday weekends.
