So this morning we all went to the grocery store together. We were in line to check out and this older lady behind me tapped me on the shoulder and said "Can I say something to him (pointing at DS), I won't touch him. I just want to say something". I said okay just because people usually want to talk to him about the baby or being a big brother soon, and I thought that it was kind of nice that she actually asked first. So she walked up to him in the cart and said something to him about how she has this big house with lots of horses and if he comes with her he can ride her horses! He looked at me and I said "no" and was shaking my head no at him. She said "No, don't tell him what to say. He needs to learn, he should say stranger danger!" WTF lady! I lost it on her. I told her to get away from my son and that I would teach him about strangers and he doesn't need to learn from a stranger in the line at the grocery store. I was shaking I was so mad. If we hadn't already put all of our food on the belt, I would've changed lines, and in hindsight, I probably should have gotten a manager or someone to tell her that it is not okay to do that.
Anyone else have any WTF moments to share?

Re: WTF Sunday, anyone??
In other news I'm jealous that you went grocery shopping. I desperately need to go and have my menu and list all set, but DS is sleeping and FH (the f stands for what you think) went to help his dad for a minute and has been gone for over 2 hours. Ugh.

I would be LIVID! It would have been tempting to call the police and say "there is a lady trying to get my son to come to her house...." and tell her "THAT is how you handle it!"
That said, we do NOT do stranger danger because not all "bad people" are strangers. Most of the time its someone the child knows (from school, family, post office etc... etc..." We do "tricky people."
