Shopping is stressful enough without being lumbered with children (and husbands for that matter) :rolleyes:

I appreciate that single parents would need to ask grandparents or other single parent friends (taking turns) to have care of children whilst making a shopping trip.

Supermarkets are not children friendly places, unless you treat a ride in a trolley for them as a pleasure trip - I'm sure that novelty wears off for them very quickly.

I find that they are often places where children have temper tantrums to the extreme annoyance of other shoppers - that shows that the children are stressed too.

So why on earth do you take them with you?
this just about sums it up

No response or apology ? or have you used up all your apology mode lately
No response because I did not know what it meant

I think Margaret means that over 18s activites are supposed to be bad for your eyesight, Neil. ;)

Well if you mean that post then no apology is needed is it.

Margaret, let's have a trip back to the real world where not everyone is happily married and has a loving, reliable partner to look after the kiddies whilst mum goes shopping, or indeed where a single mum can rely on her mum to look after the kids.
Margaret, smell the coffee. I am 40 , I have only recently started leaving my daughter in the house alone for any length of time, she is a well built 12 year old and I still worry. I work full time, I can't shop during the week, my mum is older than she would like you to know and though she is very young in her outlook I would not impose on her as she doesn't drive and lives a distance from me.
Before you start proselytising about how it was in your day....take a walk in my shoes. !

I was 11 before mum would trust me to be left in the house on my own. Even then she locked me in and i didnt have a key to open the door!

What happens if you have moved here following your job, your families are 60 miles away, you have no friends here - you've only just moved here and dont know anyone round here who do you leave the kids with then? Would you leave your kids with neighbours you've only known 10mins? If you think yes then you dont deserve to have kids.

Kids going shopping is a learning experience for them. How else do you expect them to know about the different types of veg and fruit, the value of money, different types of food, etc

You are getting confused between your house and the secure unit you lived in. The secure unit was the one with padded walls so you did not hurt yourself.
