Man scolds crying boy 'at full volume' over maths in Suntec: 'Scary to watch him lose his temper in public'

A passer-by is concerned to witness a man shouting at a crying child in public in Suntec City Mall on the evening of Sept 13.

The Stomper said the "awful incident" happened at around 8pm.

"This dad was scolding at full volume at his son in public," recounted the passer-by.

"His son had already been crying prior to this. He continued shouting for a really long time and in front of so many people.

"It was really scary to watch him lose his temper in public."

Why was the man shouting at the child?

"It was because of multiplication tables," said the Stomper.

"If he did this in public in front of so many people, I can't imagine what he does at home behind closed doors.

"It's not normal at all."
