    Parents seem to have lost the ability to use that magic word:- "NO!"

    Do you have kids???

    The whole point of these build-a-bear days means that it's a FUN and HAPPY day for parents and kids.

    Parents shouldn't have to say NO, and shop assistants shouldn't be offering things to children without parental permission, as it will only lead to disappointment if the parent has to say no, which defeats the point of the activity!

    As a parent, I always ask other parents before offering anything to their kids.
    Should've = Should HAVE (not 'of')
    Would've = Would HAVE (not 'of')

    No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)

    The original poster who had the complaint was actually apologised to by BaB and told that wasn't how they should operate.
