Who would do this???

[DisneyAddict_M]

I took my daughter to Chuck E. Cheeses a couple of nights ago, because I'm glutton for punishment. Anyway, I noticed a table in the corner that was completely empty except for a baby carrier with a sleeping baby in it (the baby was probably about a month or two old). No one was around the table at all. After a few minutes, a woman and an older child went to the table, so I assume that was the mother. Then they left again to play games. I kept glancing over there every once in awhile (mostly to be sure the baby was okay) and the mother NEVER went near the table. In fact, she had her back to it most of the time. Maybe she thinks those handstamps will keep someone from kidnapping her baby? The place wasn't very crowded at all, but still......who would do that?

Even if I wasn't worried about kidnapping, I wouldn't leave a baby that young out of my sight like that, especially in a noisy, crowded place where you would not be able to hear the baby cry.

I would have spoken to the manager about it. If they wouldn't do anything, and the Chuckee Cheese was in mall or somewhere that has security I would have gone to them.

Chuck E Cheese is crazy anyway. I'd be a bit nervous about the other kids there. Even the most well behaved children get a bit rambunctious at that place and the not so well behaved, well...they just get worse. I know that my daughter was obsessed with babies when she was younger and even tried to pick up her brother a few times (she was 4).

I wouldn't do it either. nope...sorry......

I don't even let Chloe out of my sight, much less would go that far from one of my children!

That place is nuts! I always have DD8 right next to me.

When I worked at Barnes & Noble, I found more than one infant in a carseat sitting on the floor at the end of one aisle, while their parent(s) browsed in the next aisle (or farther!).

And don't even get me started on the preschoolers who would get left alone in the kids department while their parents shopped.

I always wanted to take one of the babies into the breakroom - and see how long it took these idiots to even notice their child was missing - just to teach the parents a lesson.

A few years ago Dh and I took DD13 and her friend to Chuck E. Cheese's. Dh went to a store next door and bought Teddy Bears to surprise the girls with. He sat the teddy bears up on the table and he was sitting there nibbling pizza by himself. A little boy about 3 or 4 years came up to him and asked, "Are you having a tea party with your bears?"

That's just crazy leaving a baby at the table.

Someone I know did do something like that! She was at a fast food restaurant, and a group of high school girls had those electronic baby dolls that teaches them responsibility. They get graded on the information that comes from the computer chip inside the doll. The girls left their dolls at the table while they went up to order their food. My friend saw the dolls and went over there and took them and hid them! She watched the girls freak out for a few minutes. She gave the girls the dolls back after they gave her the name of their teacher. She got a phone book and called the teacher's house to report them! When she was done reporting them to the teacher, she gave the dolls back to the girls! My friend is nuts!

I get my laundry done at a wash-n-fold. When I went to pick my clothes up once, this woman had her teeny-tiny baby on the floor in the aisle where I need ed to get out. These aisles are NARROW. I had to step over the baby while holding 30 pounds of clothes. Why would she leave her child there? She could have put her up on top of the machines.

That is beyond scary. Yes, they have the hand stamps, but that won't stop someone from grabbing infants, toddlers, even children and bringing them somewhere in the restaurant and possibly harming them
