[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 465935, member: 6705"] Shopping for 8-9 hours would make [I]me[/I] scream incessantly. You know, Star - I know exactly which parents you're talking about. Mommy (or Daddy) is looking at clothes, books, lamps, whatever, and Junior is in the cart, screaming - and parent is [I]ignoring[/I] them. I don't know HOW. I certainly couldn't. Now if the same parent was holding the child, bouncing them, trying to give them a bottle, trying to gather up stuff to get the child outside? They get a sympathetic look and offers of help from me. As in, "can I help you carry anything?" Most say no, thank you, but then, they're the ones who care... [/QUOTE]
