And it was marked the "family friendly" aisle too. I hate having to go back to that cashier but he is quicker than all the others.<br /> I was a stink eye giver pre-kids when I see young kids getting on my flight. I suppose I deserve some payback. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-stink-eye-when-you-take-your-lo-into-certain-stores#post-102933 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 12:04:02 +0000 Andrea 102933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LivsMama: seriously! Those people aren't worth your time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-stink-eye-when-you-take-your-lo-into-certain-stores#post-102851 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:39:56 +0000 LivsMama 102851@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: it took everything in me to remain calm and not go off like I usually do. I didnt want to make a scene bc it was busy and these girls were like 22 tops, clearly with no kids. I did shoot them a nasty look and they got embarrassed. I wish Id said something though. Ive been known to snap back any time something like that happens.</p> <p>@Andrea: no it was in Hoboken, we were there with friends. And it wasnt even that loud! Normal diner volume, and we were in the back room where it wasnt as noisy. </p> <p>People just need to mind their effing business </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-stink-eye-when-you-take-your-lo-into-certain-stores#post-102820 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:22:07 +0000 Andrea 102820@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LivsMama: a diner? that is crazy. was this in the city? the last time i was in the city, the DH and I went to eat at Gari West Side and it was baby central. we were really surprised but thought that it meant people were cool with babies in most NYC restaurants if they would bring their kids to eat sushi. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-stink-eye-when-you-take-your-lo-into-certain-stores#post-102798 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:14:32 +0000 heffalump 102798@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LivsMama: That's crazy talk. I prefer bringing my LO to loud restaurants so people don't hear her so much. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-stink-eye-when-you-take-your-lo-into-certain-stores#post-102787 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:09:24 +0000 chopsuey 102787@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LivsMama: Uh. I totally would have given those 3 girls a piece of my mind! I mean, how loud was it? We take LO to loud restaurants and she loves it. It's also great for us because the noise drowns out her squeals and screams! :D </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-stink-eye-when-you-take-your-lo-into-certain-stores#post-102783 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:07:38 +0000 LivsMama 102783@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>thats so annoying. We went to a diner the other day, and I actually had three girls say to eachother "I cant believe she would bring a BABY here. Its too loud. Thats really bad for brain develpoment, doesnt she know that?" We did get a stink eye from the guy at the table next to us, then Liv started flirting with him and was quiet, and he ended up smiling. Lets be real. It was a diner. Not a rock concert. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-stink-eye-when-you-take-your-lo-into-certain-stores#post-102766 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:00:37 +0000 heffalump 102766@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO can't walk so the only issues we have are if she's fussy. I actually got the stink eye from a mother once when LO was being fussy. Thanks for the sympathy! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-stink-eye-when-you-take-your-lo-into-certain-stores#post-102764 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 10:00:31 +0000 chopsuey 102764@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: I think smaller (privately owned) shops have that policy. Big stores, probably not. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-stink-eye-when-you-take-your-lo-into-certain-stores#post-102761 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 09:59:52 +0000 Andrea 102761@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@chopsuey119: i dunno?? not that i have seen posted anywhere at least. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-stink-eye-when-you-take-your-lo-into-certain-stores#post-102756 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 09:58:56 +0000 chopsuey 102756@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No stink eyes just yet! Probably will get some when she starts walking around? :P Do stores have a you break, you buy policy? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-get-stink-eye-when-you-take-your-lo-into-certain-stores#post-102750 Tue, 27 Mar 2012 09:56:18 +0000 Andrea 102750@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We've been doing a lot of errands on the weekends since we're doing home renovations. We don't have any (free) babysitters so the LO has to come along. I notice that we get a lot of stink eye because they probably think the LO is going to break something but she is generally very well behaved. There are so many kid haters in this world! </p>
