If there is one thing I find the most annoying attitude that my kids use to do during our shopping for grocery is playing with the wall mount barcode scanner. Both son ‘A’ and girl ‘B’ loves playing with it. They will find their usual items, which are the toys not one but two or three on their hand. Sometimes I give up of asking them not play with it as they will repeat it again after being told. So what I do is asking the security to tell them not to play. It works better sometimes. Do you have similar experience?
How do your kids behave at shopping complex? As for my two kids, as soon as they step into mall, they start making noise, jumping, shouting, running, hide in between the clothes rack. I find myself constantly saying “stop running, this is not a play ground”. Their favorite spot is the toys area.
My boy loves to run from a point to point. Often time when we can’t find him, hubby and I have to go separately to look for him and sometimes we wasted our time searching for him. My boy has a history of missing at the shopping mall when he was only one a half year. He went inside the lift by himself. So it’s like a trauma to me.
