I was at a restaurant today, and a mother, her two kids, and two other women were with her. So the little girl who was with her sits on the couch at the restaurant instead of at the table where her mother is. She starts by saying, "Mommy, I want to sit with you." She says it again. And again. And again. And again.........And again. Then she starts crying. "MOMMMYYYYYY I WANT TO SIT WITH YOU!!"
So, she wouldn't get up from the couch but she wanted to sit with her mom. Why don't you just get up and sit with her, she's literally 10 feet from you. Keeps crying and saying she wants to sit with her. Her mom keeps saying "I'm sitting with the group honey, if you want to sit with me there's a chair next to me."
Then guess what the kids says?
"I want to sit with you, but I don't want to get up"
Jesus. H. Christ.
She didn't get up to sit with her mom because she didn't want to get up from the couch. Kids these days.
And of course I'm laughing at that, quietly enough so that I wouldn't look crazy. This girl is maybe 5 or 6. Wow.....I feel really bad for her mother. So her mom gets up and picks her up and brings her over to the table. She picks the kid up because she's too lazy to get up and walk to the table.
No thank you.
I live (single) in a small town and I see alot of people with kids. I dont know if its a religious/social community trend to have kids here but I find it funny that some of these people (walking around with their stroller) seem or look depressed (and even mad/stuck up). For me personally (and my sister agrees with me), I dont know why I would want any kids - they are expensive, stressful and time-consuming longterm, and its a crazy world to bring them into.
