Children: One boy 8, twin girls 7. | Re: Watch your kids closely while shopping | | Well sometimes they think I am just talking to hear myself talk. They are the type they will believe it when they see it. They saw it and then I questioned what the man looked like and they didn't know so I said "then how would I find you?" I bet you they will be right next to me. Gawd knows I better NEVER see any man near my child or he is going to taste the floor. |

We do have concerns about our daughter is out the mall. She can't go without a parent, but we allow her to go off own her own if she has 2+ friends with her and a cell phone.
The issue we have always had is she is does like to meet new people, and I swear she makes new friends every time we go to the mall, even it just some old lady sitting around with a little dog. Of course little old ladies don't concern up at all, but I personally get a bit uneasy when she starts talking to older boys and men she never met before. Probably a typical example is if some father is push a stroller around, she'll want to see the baby and start up a conversation. This is probably not dangerous situation, but she is still meeting men this way. When she with a group of girls an they see a group of boys 15 and under, she'll encourage her friends to walk up to the boys and find out what school they go too. It is stuff like that doesn't set well with me. |
