It's such a tough situation isn't it? In 90%
of unfair situations I see in public I have no problem getting involved, It's not even something I think about, however when it's parent child or husband/wife, the dynamic is different. I know that if I risk angering them, or come across as condescending in any way, all that anger or embarassment is going to be directed toward the child, or partner later on.
I agree with you that getting them talking is probably the best way, and probably the most reasonable too, there are times where you might be seeing a normally good parent having an exceptionally bad day.
