To: the woman at Wal-Mart who had a wobbling infant boy in the shopping cart

Monday, January 31st, 2005

If you’re going to have a baby, look after him with all the care and love that he so rightly deserves. He didn’t ask to come into this world. He’s a baby. He can’t talk or walk or defend himself. You’re his mommy and should be his most determined advocate, to protect and love him unconditionally, to provide the best environment for him so he flourish to his fullest potential. Yet you failed him. While you were paying, with a check – who uses checks these days anymore – his little head bobbled up and down and sideways. He’s not even old enough to sit by himself yet. Let’s not forget that you were physically about 5 feet away from the shopping cart. And how about that crusty dried up and started up again booger trail hanging from his nostrils, while he’s nibbling away at the safety belt on the cart, which you did NOT fasten onto him. You’re a breeder, not a mother. Your actions were loathsome, and I had only been in line for a mere 2 minutes. I can’t imagine what goes on at home. I so hope you come around someday soon, but probably not soon enough to avoid any emotional and physical trauma to the little boy. What a sad, sad vicious cycle.
