Yes, but I think they should have given credit to the original story too. (or refer to the one they first saw)

I shopped year round for toys for tots so I always had something available. But I also shopped for families that didn't have anything and I charity accounts that were direct deposit year round. My husband got a little upset but he never paid a bill, I paid for everything so I told him once he started paying bills, he could have a say in where my money went because I believe it's my right to tithe and I don't tithe through the church, I tithe where I think it's most needed and have done so since I was 5 years old and worked different jobs just so I could donate. He didn't say anything after that but he had fun when it came time to take all the toys in because we couldn't have children. And we spoiled our nieces and nephews.

My mom wrapped them as soon as bought them but my brother just unwrapped to see what they were and then blackmailed my sister and I to help wrap them back up. I think that's how he paid for much of college tuition! He blackmailed us all the time and my parents said why don't you girls save money like your brother? Because he's blackmailing us! 😅 They didn't know how much I had saved because it wasn't any of their business because I never knew if I needed it to escape my abusive parents. But I paid for everything myself because I refused to be beholden to my parents.

im ur 100th

I didn't see the mouse...then i realized it was sarcasm ^^;

I'm not sure how old you are, but I'd be surprised if you don't remember the super fast metal slides at parks that would burn your thighs in shorts in the summer? Or the merry go rounds and see saws that were a little slip away from breaking bones/skulls? If you're a millennial you might remember those Chucky cheeses slides (also at parks sometimes) with the rollers that were finger breaking traps. Ball pits that could have anything in them, often small children hiding and getting jumped on by larger children. Any climbing equipment outdoors with no squishy soft artificial turf to fall on? Those ten foot high tire stacks built over hard ground? The super long chained swings you could launch yourself halfway to the stratosphere off of or do flips on? In 1989 I knocked an older bully kid off of the top of a McDonald's play place intentionally, like up by the high slide. That would be impossible now.

I don't know where you're from but in Detroit, we had Bob-lo Island nearby, Riversedge amusement park, we had Cedar Point in Ohio not too far away and SeaWorld and as I got older, we had Pine K**b for concerts and various other concert arenas and there were arcades and bowling and there was miniature golf and trampolines over pits. There were all kinds of things to do and we made things happen too.

Wait, wasn't that the WHOLE POINT of McDonald's? And also, I remember what counted as a playground growing up and so I am unconcerned about signing liability away at an actual facility.

There used to be a place called discovery zone, or DZ, when i was a kid. And maybe it's just my kid memory but it was way cooler than any trampoline park (which is all they have now near me) my kid goes to. It was a building with 3 or 4 different play structures similar to a McDonald's play place but like... Giant. Adults could fit in it and inside the structures they also had climbing walls and ropes. And one section had slides and a ball pit. And they had karaoke and in the back there was laser tag. I miss it so much. If you Google it there are some pictures.

Never been to a Chucky cheese?

Karen? Is that you? ;)

God a bit busy right now, I'll just deliver the message.

That is the life of parenting

For me it's that now that I'm an adult I can eat what I want when I want because no one can stop me.

It's not hypocrisy - it's trying to teach what you haven't mastered with hopes that your children will do better 😉 My mum used to say "you will get it when you have kids of your own". It's so true 😅
