The Age of the New Model Parent

Four brats on the train, two of whom were the parents. The two younger brats yell, they sound like starving seagulls. Their twelve year old parents, with middle class accents, refer to themselves in the third party "Mummy does not like it" says Mummy "Mummy will get you to sit next to daddy". "Daddy wants you to be quiet" says Daddy. Rather than being parents, the couple sound as if they are playing Mummies and Daddies. Their sprogs yell and yelp, it seems that they have their parents under firm control by inducing to respond to them in such a childlike manner. What is even more hilarious is that Daddy gets out his mobile phone, phones his Mummy and babbles inanities to her.
