Even grandmothers can be bullies!

Today a mother, grandmother and 4-year-old came into the store to get a dress and a pair of shoes for Easter.

I was thoroughly shocked yet what I had witnessed and it was all I could do to not ask the grandmother to leave the store. The grandmother literally was bullying her granddaughter because she could not put a pair of shoes on. 

She stood there calling her granddaughter and not so many words stupid saying she had the IQ of an infant who was just brought home from the hospital and she blamed it all on her father and his side of the family because they baby her. 

Now what they didn't take into consideration was that maybe her shoes were hard to put on her she would slide her feet in but she would crunch her toes up so she couldn't get her shoe on all the way and you know.. instead of sitting in the store yelling at her, you should take her home and sit on the couch with her and BE PATIENT and teach her that way. There's no reason to yell at a child because they can't put their shoe on! 

The mother literally just stood watching. I could tell that she was frustrated, there were a few times where she had her hands over her face out of embarrassment because of what her mother was doing. I kind of felt sorry for her, but then as a mother you should not allow that to happen to your child. 

I mean maybe she dealt with that growing up maybe her mother bullied her growing up, but that would have been the perfect time to break that cycle and tell her mother you will not bully my child the way you bullied me! She should have picked her daughter up and left the store. 

I would have loved to see the father make a random appearance and hear everything the grandmother was saying and have watch him take his daughter away. Now that would have been pretty cool.

I have actually seen a few fathers walk in well they're well their children were getting mistreated by their mothers and they literally rescued their children picked them up and said let's go and left the mothers to find a way home.

One mother I saw smack a crying infant cuz the infant and the father had literally just walked into the same aisle they were and he saw it. He picked up the baby and walked out of the store and left her with her shopping cart she had to find a way home.
