Is it asking too much these days to entertain your kids for a half hour while you shop?

Am I going to have to be the awful parent who denies my child that thrill? I am...

I used to give the kids a roll of paper towels to hold onto while we shopped. It kept their hands occupied in the shopping cart so they weren't taking thins off the shelf, and they felt like they were part of the shopping. Worked like a charm!

I would like to say that Orlando residents are the whiniest people on the face of the earth! I'm looking at apartments and checking out their ratings. There's not a single apartment complex that doesn't get trashed by its residents. There's always someone in each one that calls it the worst place they ever lived in. Oh come on people! :brick:

One of the big thrills for DD when we'd go visit my mom in Florida was going to Publix because they had miniature shopping carts for the kids to push around. We always let her push one with us, and we'd put select things in hers to make her feel special. I think they've since done away with them because too many kids were turned loose with them and they were racing all over the stores in them! :fork:

You haven't met them ALL yet. One of my best friends lives in Orlando. Give the place a chance. :)

Hello.

I'm cranky.

My feet hurt.

It was hotter than blazes at work today.

I turned on the A/C when I got home.

My paycheck paid me too much.

My dad says I have to tell them. :brick:

Because really, our kids just don't watch enough TV. And we haven't found enough ways to outsource our jobs as parents yet...:rolleyes:

As much as I despise this whole concept, somebody is going to get filthy rich.

We have them at our local markets, and the only time Em is allowed to use one is when I'm doing a marketing small enough to fit in the wee cart. That way I can control the situation...I've seen tons of kids with these things and the parents just think it's sooooo adorable to let their kids wreak havoc with them....grrrrrr.
