Ok so my son is going to the cinema party. The mum who took them ( small group) got the time wrong and missed their film by an hour.
So she decides to give them lunch while they kill time to wait for the next one.
Fair enough.
But then i get a text " hi hun, sorry missed time for film r w8ting 4 nxt 1. Lunch @maccyDs. ok?"

For GODS sake, if I wanted my kid to eat there ( as if) I'd take him. He knows we dont eat there or at similar places.
I am livid but what could I say?

Advice please on how to deal with this

Ha!

Val, I just got it, "i'm loving it"

HabbiBOOM · 06/11/2010 18:39

Surely the day the moonpups went to MacDonalds closed this argument forever?

Don't often come on ere... but I am glad I read this thread, it's mcfunnyWink.

Very funny

Mummy2Bookie · 06/11/2010 19:12

Oh for christs sake. It's a childrens party. You're allowed to have treats at a party.
What's the difference between ice cream, fizzy pop, chocolate, sweeties etc at the cinema ( you know that's what he'd be having at the cinema) and mcdonalds? Not a lot really.
I think you need to sort out your priorities.

LilRedWG · 06/11/2010 19:21

Thanks for bumping this with your other thread. Very very funny.

Lotster Grin That was more genius than the MN who started this thread.

I think this has to be in classics??

TiggyD · 06/11/2010 19:31

Your son is now ruined.
You'll just have to start with a fresh one.

onmyfeet · 06/11/2010 19:33

He will live, unless you are raising him vegetarian, and at least she let you know. It is ok to eat there from time to time, both my kids did, as well as other fast food places from time to time. They both despise McDonalds now, so they didn't get hooked on it.

Sterling work all. Sheer McGenius.

OP

You are clearly a neglectful mum who has no concern for your child. How DARE you allow him to befriend someone who had crossed the threshold of the dreaded yellow M. I think you should be reported.

scottishmummy · 06/11/2010 20:03

i could fair go a mcflurry

hystericalmum · 06/11/2010 20:33

pmsl!
Anyway, flame me!
I take my kids to MacDonalds sometimes cos I fancy a fillet-o-fish, fries & a large coke.
My kids aren't fussed & don't like McFlurries.
I am thinking of calling social services & having them taken into care.
They're not keep on Mc D's FFS. That's the joys of having kids. Guilt free trips to Mc D's! Grin

BeaSpellsaLot · 06/11/2010 21:00

Fair dos to Lotster, I am truly impressed Smile

petisa · 06/11/2010 21:21

Hmmm, "twigs and shit", that reminds me of someone...

bootoyou · 06/11/2010 21:44

I'm glad you all think this is funny and amusing. This is my son's birthday party. And also where are you now Maddonalds? Funny how you only log on when I'm not online. If you have something to say, say it to my face or get on here now and we'll talk about it.

scottishmummy · 06/11/2010 21:46
