BAD Grandma...

Cindy & I were shopping today. I was strolling down a hardware aisle...A grandma and a boy, maybe age 4, were in the same aisle.

The kid was reaching toward something or other. Grandma screamed: "No-no, don't touch. If you do, that man (pointing to me) will break ALL your fingers!"

The kid pointed to me, an expression of fear oh his face, "HIM?!?", he asked. Grandma said "YES!"

I shook my head no, looked at the kid, said: "I'd NEVER do that."

Then the b!tch lit into me...I wasn't "helping" her discipline her grandchild.

Then Cindy lit into her...oboy, did she ever, with another lady as
backup. I know when to shut up and let others fight for me, yeah I do.

It got kind of fun after that, but gawd...what the HELL was this broad thinking????

Any theories???

Just another average psycho in charge of another helpless child.

You should have grabbed the kid and started to gently bend his fingers........Would have been a good thing for both him and the grandma.....

Weird, my grandmother always told me jigaboos would get me if I left the yard alone.

Took me about a decade to figure out what the old coot meant.

Once in a while in my store I have a similar scenario directed to me. I kick them both out if it looks like something is going to get damaged.

No, I won't touch you, (to the little boy), but I'll snap your fukcing neck if I ever hear you abusing a child again. (To the old bag).

Grandma had the kid because Mom is on crack and in jail. More Grandparents raising kids than ever before.

We're doomed.....
