I totally agree the fifth on that floor and in the parking lot
And then there is the issue of broken glass, engine oil, burning black top, rusty nails, small rocks or pebbles, feet being cut and infection setting in.
Maybe the parents were tired, over worked, maybe the kids did take their shoes off, however as a parent it is our job no matter how tired, over worked or ill we are to ALWAYS do the best for our children, to always keep them out of harm's way.
That is how I saw my role as a mom. Walking barefoot in a store or in a parking lot is not safe.
Now Elyse my plans for this weekend are to work in my yard and relax.
How about you?
Maybe get together with some friends.

Now, I'm sorry I brought it up and let's move on to another topic! Who's got plans for the weekend?
