Its really sad that this has become something so commonly found in many shuls. But what hurt me more, was when i told my child to make sure to keep quiet, and she turns to me after davening and said “but in this shul they let you talk!” It was hard for me to explain that it isnt ok. B”h it is not our regular shul and i dont plan on going back there again.
As the famous line goes:
If you come to shul to talk, where do you go to daven?!
