Is it necessary to have children’s carriages on trains?

I think there is no need for trains to have children’s carriages. There are mainly two reasons.

First, let’s look at specific examples. Recently, a video of children making noise on a high-speed train sparked heated discussion. A three- or four-year-old child was persuaded to stop by passengers in the same carriage because he was making too much noise. Unexpectedly, But he was angered by the child's parents. Parents not only failed to fulfill their educational obligations, but also set wrong "examples" for their children. In this regard, some people have suggested that high-speed trains should be equipped with children's carriages. Can a "non-silent carriage" exclusively for children solve the noisy problem?

When children make noise on the high-speed train, it seems to be the child’s problem, but in fact it is the parent’s problem. One netizen pointedly pointed out: "The problem is not the child. It is normal for children to be lively and restless, but most of the annoying things are the parents' inaction and even indulging their children to treat the car as if they were at home." The naughty child cannot control it. Parents should not let their children control their emotions, and they cannot use "he is still a child" as an excuse to ignore their children's noises.

To be honest, there are no technical difficulties for the railway department in setting up "children's carriages". But setting up "children's carriages" cannot completely solve the problem of noisy children. Even if there are "children's carriages" on high-speed rails, what about subways, airplanes, long-distance buses, and buses? Is it necessary to follow the same pattern and set up "children's carriages"? From this perspective, setting up "children's carriages" is not only an indulgence for the naughty children, but also an indulgence for the naughty parents.

Second, is it necessary to set up a children’s carriage?

Children make noises on high-speed trains from time to time. This is very annoying for many passengers. After all, it affects their rest. However, it is recommended that high-speed trains set up "children's carriages", which is not necessary. , it is better for parents to take good care of their children.

As mentioned before, technically it is not a big problem, but it treats the symptoms rather than the root cause, and it is not easy in actual situations.

After all, the number of passengers with children is not fixed, and the places and times for boarding and alighting are also different. Moreover, even if there is a "children's carriage", it may not be recognized by passengers. What should I do if some passengers bring their children but are unwilling to ride in the "children's carriage"? Similar "women's carriages" before have now long existed in name only.

On the one hand, passengers have the right to choose freely, but more importantly, if a "children's carriage" is really set up, so many children will be gathered together. If the parents do not manage it well, the children will chase each other in the car. Fighting will undoubtedly increase safety risks. Therefore, from a practical operational perspective, it may be difficult for the "children's carriage" to achieve its preset goals.

Children’s inability to calm down on the high-speed rail is partly related to the child’s physiological development. Some children are unable to be quiet when they need to be quiet in public places, and are unwilling to sit when they need to sit. This may not be intentional, but children show varying degrees of insufficient execution in childhood. Moreover, it is indeed difficult for such a young child not to make a noise if he rides in the car for a long time.

On the other hand, it is related to the lack of targeted discipline on the part of parents. As a parent, you should be very clear about the characteristics of your children. Parents don't have any "means" on how to calm down their children. For example, if your child likes reading, you should prepare more books that your child likes to read before going out; if your child likes to play with toys, then take toys with you when you go out; if your child can calm down listening to stories, you should prepare more stories. You can try many methods.

The above are my thoughts and opinions. Everyone is welcome to discuss and exchange together.
