Not a chance.
No, you got to talk to the parent.
You don't talk to the kid.
I think if it merits a conversation, the conversation is with the parent, not the kid.
I think it's wild to parent someone else's kid.
Yeah, that was just like my general instinct on the situation.
The question is, though, you know, maybe when we're at Thinkery, there are these two boys and there was this really cool activation and it was wind and you put the ping like these little wind tubes and you put the ping pong ball on the wind tube and it would shoot it up.
And these two boys and they must have been seven or eight years old and they just were hogged like they were hogging that area.
They would not move.
And like Bubz and Winnie were like trying to get in there and the guys were just like boxing them out.
And they'd run and pick it up and then like move the girls out.
And like I was looking... You were looking at the mom waiting.
I was looking at the mom waiting for her to look up from her phone.
And she just didn't look up from her phone the entire time.
And to me, the comment...
to be made would have been to the mom and not the kids.
It would be like, hey, do you mind talking to your son so he can give the girls a chance?
It's not to talk to those boys because I think that you just don't know how that parent wants to parent, and I think that's a slippery slope.
That's my instinct.
Yeah, and I totally agree with you.
