and REALLY didnt deserve a bollocking?
hubby works in a shop. yesterday he saw a little child toddling alone in the store. child looked to him to be about 18 months old. he saw no parents near by so walked up next to her and started to try to talk to her. things like, where is mummy? is daddy with you? whats your name? she just babbled back at him so he carried on beside her making sure she didnt get hit by anything or hurt herself. he called to another member of staff to put out an announcement and carried on with her, looking for anyone who might be a freaked out looking parent. anyway,. she walked up to where the access is too the toilet. the loos are accesses by a swinging door, which has a chest hight window. so if someone pushed the door the girl would have been caught square in the face, or she could have pushed it open and walked into the toilets. hubby picked her up and walked to the customer services desk. put the girl on it and handed her some random teddy to play with. he stood infront of her so she couldnt fall and was high up so easily seen. the dad came running up grabbed the daughter thanked hubby and appologised for not paying attention etc.
hubby then got a total bollocking off another member of staff for picking up the girl. apparently he put himself in a compromised situation. should have called for a female member of staff. and should have not followed her or touched her.
hubby is FUMING.
what do you all think?

Well done to your hubby OP - and the other member of staff was out of order. He took the child to the customer services desk for goodness sake (where she would most likely to be found by her parents).

PC gone bonkers. There are the same amount of peodos and murderers around these days its just plastered all over the press the whole time

Your dh is what I would tell ds is a safe adult. Someone in a shop, a policeman, security guard etc. So if that had been my ds I would have been incredibly grateful to your dh and would have hoped that ds's trust in his safe adult would mean the adult did what your dh did.
