I Wonder....

Went to GIANT for my groceries during lunch. Got a box of dates as well. Yupp, dates is a compulsory thingy for hubby and I on fasting month. I didn’t know what to eat, thus I bought myself Chee Cheong Fun for my lunch-at-home. Heheh..

Anyways, the thing that I want to highlight is on the way back, still at the food court section though.. I heard a girl about Kakak’s age, crying and screaming non-stop. It suddenly reminded me of my kids. However, she is absolutely normal. She put on a tantrum because she wanted to take a ride on the bio-animals (those animals that can move and walk around; resides in most of the shopping complexes these days). The thing that actually hit me was that, the little girl was sitting on the ‘non-moving’ or ‘static’ bio-animal and she cries endlessly to get the attention from the parents.

Meanwhile, the mother and the father totally ignored her and worst, the man-in-charge had to ‘shoo’ the girl away. I mean, HELLO.. how could the father just ignored her like that??? I mean, since she is already on it, you might as well just pay for it, right? I don’t think it is very expensive anyway….or the father could have just took her off the bio-animals instead of the man-in-charge had to carry her off her feet since the parents care-less about the daughter.

Please-lah, don’t you learn ethics in school?? I pitied the man-in-charge because he suddenly came into the picture. I mean, he had to do something… right? Coz, other people could be waiting for their ride or something.. so, he is not at fault to ‘shoo’ the kid away..

Well, I guess… some people can be ignorant when others are fully aware with what happen around them. So, which one are you????
