I had to help a 3/4 year old boy one time he was with a group of 8 adults and walking down MS pre afternoon parade they all stopped trying to scope out a spot. I guess they then started walking he wasn't paying attention because the next time I looked over he was just standing there crying. I sent my husband to find a CM and I went over to try to calm him down.
By the time the mom came running back terrified she started yelling at me like I was trying to kidnap her son. The CM set her straight and told her we had calmed her son down and found a CM to help him instead of leaving him all alone to cry in the middle of the street or wonder off and get more lost. She just kind of huffed at us and stomped off with her kid.
On my last trip I found a little girl about 5 years old outside a store crying. A bunch of people were sitting on benches just staring at her but she was obviously alone. I asked if her mom and dad were lost and she nodded. I asked where she saw them last and she said they were shopping so I took her in the store and went straight to the counter (there were 2 CM's there - one ringing people through and one bagging) and said, "This little girl lost her parents, can you help us?"
Well I got yelled at by two people in the line up (appeared to be a husband and wife) who told me I could wait in line up like everyone else. Then when I tried to explain that a child was lost a woman turned and told me I should take better care of my kid (ummm...not my kid) and that SOME people shouldn't have kids (yeah, I agree...I'm one of those people). Then her father come over to us (by this time I had lifted her up on the counter and the CM asked her to see if she saw her parents) and she pointed and yelled, "There's Daddy!" I was holding her on the counter her Dad came and picked her up then told me that they DO NOT allow their children to stand on counters and to mind my own business.
I was so ticked off by the time I left that store with everyone yelling at me my friends needed to calm me down. I kept saying that I will never help a lost kid again and that people suck! Then we went on Dinosaur and I was ok.
