[QUOTE="Marie Forjan, post: 9886323, member: 147"]I have to say, watching children and their parents at our local flea, parents have no control. All I think about is "If you can't control them at 6 years old, what are you going to do when they are 16?" A family came by my booth, parents and 3 young boys. The boys pulled necklaces off my display and tried to shove them over their heads. I went over, grabbed them back and said something like "These are old and delicate and they are not toys!" I got dirty looks from the parents as they waked away. Really? Would they have paid for them if their little dears damaged them? And I am not the only one having this problem, I hear similar stories from other dealers.[/QUOTE]
