Now shame on me for judging, because I know NOTHING about parenting. But surely people should know better than this:


I've been working at MacDonalds over Christmas holidays.

The other day, I was working in the dining area, cleaning up after the messiest mofo's on the planet (I mean, you sometimes wonder if they actually EAT anything...) and wiped a table that some kids were sitting on.
One of the girls (aged between about 5-7 I'd guess) started trying to help me by wiping it with her hands.

Her mum went mental.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!? ARE YOU STUPID OR SOMETHING?!? THAT'S AN EIGHTY FIVE POUND COAT!!!"


I was thinking, are you stupid or something?
First off, spending £85 on a coat? I know I wouldn't.
Secondly, how's a kid supposed to appreciate something like that. I mean I won't go as far to say that they wouldn't care what sort of coat they were wearing, because if it was really tatty then they wouldn't like it. But £85?
Lastly, it's cruel. Loading them with a responsibility? Stopping them from having fun and being themselves. For a coat that they probably didn't even choose to have and doesn't really mean that much to them anyway?


Now shame on me for judging, because I'm not a parent but...

When i have kids they are going to live in sacks and work in a factory i'm not goign to waste money on a coat like that i'm going to have the little buggers earning me money.

Most likely the pikie mum wanted it to sound like they spent alot of money on something were as the reality is that they stole it or they got if off a market cheap (if they got it off the market fine just bad lieing about it).

I think you should have called the cops as it's quite likely that the mum had nicked something and call social services to take the kids away.

I'm not a parent but i judge big time.

Because i am right always :D

apart from when i let other people be right
