First of all, I’ve had three people recently telling me I’ve got a great fashion blog and they’d like to pay to put a link in my blogroll to their site. Fashion blog? Have these people seen how I dress my children?
Secondly (brace yourself for a bit of a rant) – how dare total strangers tell my children that there are different rules to the ones I lay down? In the queue to pay at the supermarket today I was explaining to the boy that we don’t touch other people’s shopping on the conveyor belt when the man behind butted in with “well you can touch but then you’d have to pay”.
Then, in the lift on the way to the car park, right after I told the boy not to touch the alarm button in the lift the man who was in the lift with us looked at the boy and said “mmm, looks tempting doesn’t it, go on, you know you want to”.
Has the world gone mad?
Quite possibly, so here’s a completely unrelated picture.
I was once in Tesco’s and a man let his son sit on the conveyor belt and ‘ride’ it. The girl serving just didn’t know what to say. I think everyone stood there open mouthed!
Don’t know why I’m telling you this but it seemed relevant!
Out here it’s usually strangers telling my kids what to believe re: religion. Gotta love that.
How much are they willing to pay for a link? Might just want to nod and play along.
And by the way, yes, the world has gone mad. Had you not noticed?
A giant bubble! It’s almost as big as the girl herself! What fun!
Oh, I hate that. Like people in the Costco or Target are always telling Oscar to take his thumb out of his mouth and it pisses me off. And, quite frankly, it upsets my kid. So back off, granny. Zip the lip.
Grrrr, how frustrating. It’s so bizarre when people try to interfere with your parenting!
I still can’t email you!
Yes, other people are mad. Definitely.
Oh I hate it when people are like that – does my nut in!!
