On a serious note:
I am genuinely surprised so many of you think it is funny and it is ok to ignore parents wishes and it has made me much more reluctant to let my kids go anywhere with responsible adults
At what point does a child feel able to face both parents and tell them what they really want if its such a big deal to their parents? Its not a case of ‘I don’t like salt Mummy’ (thats ok honey, dont have it then).
You are a young child facing years of being told ‘we dont eat meat honey’ (full stop).
I had grown Muslim friends who are non-halal food but to their parents still pretended that they didnt or drink FFS.
See? If a grown male cant – its a scary prospect for a child.
Let a child decide. Years of nurture and propaganda means nothing to an educated son or daughter ultimately.
On a different note I wouldn’t take binners kids to McDonalds. We’d go to a nice cafe where I can eat my bagel and marmite/espresso’s 8)
