Went to the supermarket this afternoon to get a few bits and pieces....

Saw a mum with a 2 year old (i guess) in her arms......

But the shocking thing was...she was keeping her "quiet" with a tub of margarine.....

YES!!! Lid off and child was eating fingerfulls...!!!!!

That is just revolting!!!!!

I am just so disturbed at the moment with all that is in the media involving children. A collegue at work today sent me an email about a little boy that was killed through abuse WITH pictures of his injuries. I didn't open the email and certainly didn't read the details as I just get so sad when there is stuff involving wrong doings to children.

I know feeding your child is not as extreme but for goodness sake where are some parents heads????? I know we all do things at times for a little peace, and quite however that is just gross and so wrong. The fact that the child liked it enough to eat it says crazy stuff.

Eww although Alan has taken a liking to that sort of thing won't let him jsut eat it tho.  See I have more of a problem with the fact that she had not even probaly paid for it as yet and that sort of thing really bug's me in a supermarket.

So you are saying kids that like the taste of butter/margarine must mean something strange is happening to them? riiiiiggghht..

I mean, yeah, it's wrong to let your child eat a tub of marg in the supermarket, but come on.. it's not the worst thing in the world!

Maybe the child has that condition where they have to eat junk food ..probably not, but gosh that just would be the oddest thing to see I tell ya! lolz. Where do some of these mothers get there ideas from.

I bet you after she'd finished with it she shoved it in behind something on the shelf.

Worked in supermarkets for years and you'd be amazed at what I used to find..

But yeah.. gross.

OK so that would be like Maya's ultimate fantasy, strange child is forever trying to get her paws in the margarine when I'm not watching but I'd never actually let her get away with it!

Well in my book it is a form of child abuse...

you can either get a tub of marg for her to eat straight (I have nothing against having marg on sandwiches etc for kids)

OR She can use her brain and get a packet of raisins!!!

Its all about choices, and unfortunately in my opinion she didn't make the right choice, just makes me wonder what the child gets to eat at home....

And I realise that kiddies will try to get away with eating butter/marg straight, but for a parent to actually condone it....That's a bit wrong...

Raisins aren't much better, full of sugar

I get what you're saying, but I still don't see the big deal. I guess I've just seen/heard so much now that nothing suprises me

Hahaha I have so thought about that before. I don't think people realise how interesting a supermarket is, especially for entertainment value with strange customers.
