Kids just walking into a closed door bathroom

Are kids not taught not to just barge in on someone when the door is closed especially the bathroom?

Not these movie kids. They were rude as hell and completely obnoxious!

Tell me about it! Seriously, I would've grabbed that kid's arm and snatched the pregnancy test out of her hand two seconds after she grabbed it. And when she walked into the bathroom, I would've been like "I'm in here, Cassie. Please go out in the hallway." Those kids were all brats!

And TV news crews are prevented from just barging in live on a newly parented couple with their newborn. They get permission first and the hospital doesn't allow it.

Ant TV news crews are prevented from just walking up live to people at the airline ticket counter.

Weak writing, all three scenarios. But this was filmed during that big writer's strike and no rewrites were possible. (See the trivia section.)

Makes me wonder how a remake would turn out.

I'm guessing you don't have kids. ;) My kids, dog, cat, and husband all barged in on my the other day when I was trying to pee in peace. Of course Kasi was a brat so that's really why she barged in and she was a bit old for it, but if she were younger and not a brat it wouldn't be that odd.

I thought it was weirder that Reese's character didn't have a more shocked reaction. She doesn't have kids so she's not used to the intrusion, and this was not her kid who barged in, but a child she is not close to. She should have been more put off by a kid walking in on her.
