We've all been there in the lineup for the banking machine, and some woman lets her kid push the buttons....

Today, I went to a local petstore and the woman ahead of me wanted her kid to press the buttons for the interac.

The green button, hunny. No No, oops
You know the green button, can we try again.....He knows the green button

GOOD GRIEF...I'm a parent, and now a grandparent, what the hell are these people thinking....

I know there are a lot of new parents on this group, I really hope you guys are more old school....:biggrin:

2 year olds need to learn how to press buttons..........on TOYS. My daughter's 3, and has never touched an ATM.

Hee hee, that's kinda funny ... :lol: I can just imagine the exasperation of everyone in line. Thanks for the idea, I'm going to have to remember that trick next time I feel a little antisocial tendencies :p

One is never to early to learn to contribute ... but, not when there are people behind you in the line up!

Just wait till that kid realizes what money can do and swipes her ATM card to go on a buying rampage. That'll teach her :razz:

Hey maybe there is a marketing idea here. Sell portable "green" or other color buttons in your purse or ??? - the kind with velcro on them and that way you can just pull it out - place firmly on childs - or adults - backside and push - hard. Hehe good thing my kids are all grown up or else child protection would be after me for sure cause I didn't even need a green button on my childs backside to apply some pressure.

Some things should be done in spare time, eh? Haha

It's all fun and games until you start hindering others' schedules.

This lady at McDonalds decided to let her 5 (yes, 5) young children tell the cashier what they wanted; 3 of them kept forgetting.

It was a Sunday afternoon..........in a mall!

Longest McDonalds line ever.
