June 11, 201511 yr Were the girls on their Private property or setup on a Public Sidewalk? I'm assuming the latter.... Does it matter? Just asking a question.....What is the Law about Private Property?
June 11, 201511 yr Did the Girls offer their own little special stash of Yellow Lemonade? At least the Police thought it was Lemonade.....:jump:
June 11, 201511 yr Everybody's focused on the parents teaching the girls a "bad lesson" about circumventing the government...but, I'm just glad to see parents teaching kids that it's alright to WORK for something they want in the first place.

The path to failure is paved with the best of intentions.
June 11, 201511 yr The path to failure is paved with the best of intentions. Very well may be true. However, how many parents would've told an 8 year old that if they wanted something, they'd have to work for it? I'd say the vast majority of people would've either A.) just caved in and supplied the money themselves for the girls' tickets, or B.) would've flat told them "no, we don't have the money. In fact, I'd dare say that some parents would discourage the girls from doing a lemonade stand in the first place, just for the simple fact that they (the parents) think they are going to have to do some of the work themselves.

I don't want to come across as a hater in this thread. I want to point out to everyone some of the subtle things that go on in life may have far reaching implications in the future and we as a society need to pay more attention to how we teach our youth to excel in this world. With all that said, they are probably great parents that got a little frustrated and I completely understand that.
June 11, 201511 yr Ah the swinging 60s! Someone edited my post. :lol2: I said 70's. Like...when Affirmed won the first leg oftof of the Triple Crown era.
June 11, 201511 yr I took a little chemistry in college, though I'm no chemist...but how much bacteria can feasibly grow in a concoction full of citric acid in just a few hours? It's actually the sugar content that inhibits the bacteria growth.
June 11, 201511 yr Someone edited my post. :lol2: I said 70's. Like...when Affirmed won the first leg oftof of the Triple Crown era. Prolly Birdsfan, he was always known/rumored to do that kind of thing.
June 11, 201511 yr It's actually the sugar content that inhibits the bacteria growth. In other words no unsweetened lemonade and no permit needed?

You mean like questioning governmental authority and upholding our personal freedoms, right ?
June 11, 201511 yr You mean like questioning governmental authority and upholding our personal freedoms, right ? We should all question authority but I don't believe we should "immediately" circumvent authority.
June 11, 201511 yr Author We should all question authority but I don't believe we should "immediately" circumvent authority. I agree with this, and the immediate part works for me as well...I'm likely at the next city council meeting causing a slow down and jamming up the agenda with my prepared speech....
June 11, 201511 yr Does "Doc McStuffins" have her Doctorate Degree and/or have her license to provide health care to those stuffed animals everyday? (those of you with small children will know who I am talking about...) If she does not, then what is this teaching our young kids? WHAT AN ABOMINATION! what a joke.
June 11, 201511 yr I don't want to come across as a hater in this thread. I'd say the horse is out of the barn on that one Boss. :bunny:
