Not being a parent myself, can someone explain to me in words of less than one syllable why it's not a good idea to nail baby's shoes to feet and staplegun hands to mits?

Easy: WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH etc.

It counts as less than one syllable since it doesn't end.

It's just a fking shoe. A very small one at that.

Have you informed the police? There must of been cctv in the store?

I am pretty sure crimewatch would be very interested in this as well!

If you had tied it up properly I'm sure it wouldn't have come off

You mean a 17 month old kid can't tie its own shoelaces yet?

Tsk, kids today eh?


ETA: I was doing bow-lines, half-hitches and Granny knots before I was out of nappies.

I misread that at first and thought it said "blowie's" not "bow-lines" !

Could have been worse, you could have been shopping in a shoe shop...

[GKP]

It's either on the central reservation of your nearest motorway, hanging from a telephone wire or someone in the shop has made the shop assistant check for "one of these in a size 3, please".

[Cupid Stunt]

Why not just admit you don't like the shoes?

Because they can pull out too easily. Try using screws and hot glue...

[Mojooo]

Those busy people in the supermarket don;t want to be disrupted by lost shoe announcements.

Funnily enough it is just the kind of thing I can imagine someone on here moaning about if they had heard. Something about a chav not being able to hold onto their childs shoe

[mybrainhurts]

Sure the nipper didn't eat it...?

Have you checked his nappy/potty...?

I can't believe anyone would get so upset over a child's shoe, and as for seriously believing that A.Random-Customer would want it enough to pick it up and keep it, that's so far beyond rational that the OP should probably seek help.

It's a shoe. Get another pair, and learn to secure them properly.

[mybrainhurts]

I reckon the nipper took it off and put it in your pocket...

Thats why

Bring back the birch. He'd think twice about kicking off his tiny designer shoe in the future.

[Blib]

That'll teach you not to go to the Southgate ASDA any more, Glassman.
Or....no....you didn't.....Tesco, Friern Barnet?...on a Sunday..?

Lunatic!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[El Guapo]

Interpol and the FBI need to be informed about this too.

I went through that store like a forensic detective

Not sure whether we can believe your observation skills are up to much, considering you only realised he was missing a shoe when it was pointed out by a member of staff (must have been embarrassing).

Why do parents insist on cladding their offspring in the latest designer clothes when they know very well that these garments will be:

Dribbled on
Peed on
Shat on
Torn off and thrown away in a tantrum?

If I ever had kids (which I won't because I'm too old and I hate children) I'd clothe them in kitchen towels for the first five years of their lives.
