People calling the parent's skills into question are hardly off topic or hijacking the thread. They are justifiably questioning why the toddler may have been crying in the first place. I've witnessed some screaming fits that were obviously not the result of a sick or tired child, but a demanding brat who's been 'taught' that if you scream loud enough, long enough, the parent will cave.
Though I wouldn't condone hitting someone's kid, I understand the infuriated frustration on the part of the man who did.
