causing trouble and annoying, irritating, agitating, bothersome, intruding, harassing, irksome, vexatious:

Dealing with a screaming kid has a way of destroying patience. It’s even worse in public, when parents have to contend with judgmental looks from the people around them. But kids don’t care about optics. Your first instinct may be to clap your hand over the kid’s mouth, scream back, or run away. But those options are neither effective nor productive. You are likely teaching your child that they cannot, in fact, take care of themselves, which will complicate things later on.
