when I was a teenager, I was in the supermarket with my mom and my baby sister.

My mom wanted to quickly grab something from the other side of the store, so I stayed at my sister in her stroller.

I was standing next to the stroller, playing with my gameboy.

When my mom came back, a woman berated her (and indirectly me) that it's so irresponsible to leave my sister unsupervised, as I wasn't paying attention.

Mind you, I was literally 30cm next to my sister. Who was sitting in her stroller doing nothing but playing with a toy and looking around.
