Personally, I dont see why couples have to take kids anyway, if there is a danger of them "running all over the car park", the kids should not be out shopping as they are the ones who run all over the shop floor too, and piss everyone off.
But still, why should a couple with kids have preference over everyone else, including in many cases, disabled people? Its nothing to do with sfaety, its for the big supermarkets to attract more families into shopping with them.
Id never park in a disabled space on principal (okay I may do at 2am but never during normal hours lets put it that way), I dont give a toss about parent and child spaces. If they want more space, they can just park down the back of car parks, or visit at a less busy time.
Parents get everything nowadays, imho, everyone should be treated equally and fairly, whether we have kids or not. Disabled people are at a non-chosen disadvantage in many situation and therefore should have a right to park closer to the shops.
Thats one thing that pisses me off though,

pull ur head out ur ass matty, one day, if ur ever lucky enough to have kids, then you'll appreciate how annoying it is when some tosser or pair of tossers if its a couple park in a bay for parents and children when they have no kids or none with them...
The majority of the time we have to take kids with us as we have no other option, and why the hell should we go at less busy times.. wot we supposed to do, wait til after the kids have gone to bed and leave them alone in the house sleepin....its only inconsiderate 'singles' and childless couples with ridiculous pig headed opinions like this... And why should we park at the far end of the car park.... so it makes life easier for the people who think they're above everyone else... if i go shopping on my own then i park in a normal space, not a child one....
its called consideration for other people,
