Is it a low income parent thing to scream at and smack their kids in public?

Cause I'm in a poorer neighborhood at the moment and this old lady on a store scooter keeps screaming at the kids with her and I saw her slap one. I like saw them twice in the store and each time this lady is screaming. My parents never did this I just got privileges take away and grounded

It's probably just how she was brought up. It's not an excuse but I bet she has had to live a harder life than you and me. I think she needs help because it's not good for those kids either.

@Lostpoet screaming and slapping your kids is wrong. I feel sorry for the kids.
