Parents can be so worthless, though.

At one of those parking lot carnivals for kids {a pumpkin patch} I was in line with my son, standing behind a boy who'd been waiting eagerly with his ticket in his hand. I think he was the extra one who didn't make it on the last ride so he had to wait for the next one. Well, a woman came up with her kid. She got in front of the boy. He looked at her but I think maybe he didn't speak English and so he just gave her a look like 'Um...okay...big lady...'. I told her 'He is in the front of the line, the back of the line is here.' She said 'So?'

I maintained my composure thinking 'Right, show your kids just how to be a decent person'. It kills me because I really try and show my kids right from wrong, by my actions.

Only once did I get really pi$$ed and ask the kids where the woman was who took the innertubes from them at the water park saying shiet to them. I was like 'Point her to me...I am going after her right now....' as I was putting things in the car freeing up my hands. The Hubster had to calm me down.
She had claimed they took them from her kids, or had cut in line or something. I know my kids would not do that. I seriously have faith in them to do the right thing in that situation.
