On Sunday, my daughter wanted to sit on the rides outside the restaurant where we had gone to have food. Now there was a small girl sitting on a ride which was inactive. No one was with her. I was looking around for her parents. Saw a female in all finery trying to avoid my gaze. After a few minutes she came ahead and instead of starting the ride or picking up her kid, she started combing her kids hair while the kid was sitting on the ride, inspite of seeing that I am losing my patience. In the end I had to request her to shift her kid to another ride…but not before I saw a look of ‘disgust’ on her face. Seriously the look got my mind thinking.My wifey was laughing at my experience, saying that this is norm with certain mothers and kids everywhere. Unless you dont open your mouth, they dont even remove their kids for others to use the rides.
Some mothers always tend to turn a blind eye. Inspite of their kids crying reaching the ears of every other person in the vicinity, surprising they lose their hearing capabilites while the howling is going on. And when finally they see that no other person is coming forward to quiten the kid, one should see the “Look” on their faces, when they have to drop the current gossip and go and attend their kids.
Then there are mothers, who “break” the queue. They will just walk ahead of the queue, start chatting with their family member/friend who is already in the queue, and next you will find that they have secured their place in the queue. I have seen this a lot many times in gardens, in school fees queues. Best is the school fee queue, mothers will come up to a mom already in the queue, ask about her kids acadamics, and then oh, i forgot to pay my kids fees too…..why dont you take this cash and pay my kids fees too!!!!!! Very rarely I have seen other moms object. Maybe they do the same thats why. But when anybody does object…..one gets to see the “look”……….
Mothers in finery,best dresses, best sarees, and the tiny tot comes running and is responsible for a crease which can only be seen by its mothers eyes….one gets to see the “look”:))))))
Any other observations are welcome;)
