I’m quite sure “Son” “Daughter” or “Child” did not make a difference to OP in this context. Many people say “Son/Daughter” instead of “Child” without having sexist thoughts.
I think that you guys might be wrong here…drew has a point because this guy said: elementary school aged SON. If he didn’t want it to sound so sexist, he could have put it all in caps, might have had a bit more emphasis too
I think they were trying to emphasise the “its her child!” thing rather than the child’s gender, its not the best written thing in the world, but then again one doesn’t expect FaceBook statuses to be held to such rigorous standards.
Target must’ve been having a sale on thongs. For the most part, trash like this in my area gravitate towards Walmart, and leave Target in relative peace.
Or maybe The Walmart closest to her is farther away? Someone better tell corporate quick so they can build one.
It was a fail, but at least she only her them up in her hands and asked which was better… Modelling the g-string for her son and then asking which he preferred would have been much much worse.
I’m doin’ your mom. Yes, yours!
First saw her in the Walmart picking out your drawers.
Big Dolly Parton hair like an 80s prom queen,
but her ass was looking good all up in those mom jeans.
I’d believe it. I was in Target the other day too, interestingly enough, and a 40-something year old mom was dragging her primary school-aged kids through the bra section asking them to find a “nice 38D”.
“Granted, I was at Target – but still! When a skanky 20 something mom is holding up two different thongs and asking her elementary school aged SON which panties he thinks are “sexier”, I felt a need to intervene. Legally. With blunt force trauma.
The cops didn’t agree with me, will update again after I post bail. *sigh*”
maybe he’s a midget? i’m sure there are some women who have that midget fetish just like there are some midgets who have that ditsy, taller female fetish?
They put stuff like that closer to the front of the store to make it easier for the most frequent shoppers to find it. One must go through the women’s department at my local Kmart in order to get to the men’s department. That, or take the really long way around through electronics, hardware, gardening, and automotive. :->
He was on the prowl for skanky 20 year olds. He was upset at this one for 2 reasons.
1. He had already pictured himself “all over that” in his mind, and then saw she had a kid.
2. She asked her SON’s opinion on the thongs, and not his.
To be honest – Target’s near me are nice – wayyy above Wal-Mart. If this kind of filth was there on a regular basis I’d be appalled. If this is a one time thing, then it is still wrong but hey, “Peopleofwalmart.com” exists for a reason.
That’s not something I would ever feel the need to ask my daughter… ever. I don’t care if she’s an adult, that’s just not a question I would ever want to hear from my mom… ever. People, that’s how you make serial killers. Ugh.
I am the Andrew from the OP and I can tell you that the “SON” emphasis was designed (albeit poorly) to hammer home that it was her child and not to call out the specific gender. And I recognize that it would be even creepier if she was asking it of a random kid – but still… I was slackjawed.
I was leaving the store with my two elementary school-aged sons and the entrance/exit passes directly by the women’s section.
My boys overheard her and thought it was that perfect combination of hilarious/disgusting that only 8-11 year old boys can truly appreciate
While a bit disturbing, there’s nothing inherently illegal here. Also, I find it interesting that the people who threaten physical violence are generally the ones who would run in terror from it. Another thing is that the act would be “blunt force” and the result being the “trauma”. Lastly, she seems like someone who knows how to have a good time and I consider this a missed opportunity on Andrew’s part.
They were always able to take screenshots afaik – just press the home button and the on/off button at the same time and it does an image capture of the live screen.
Glad I’m not the only one who was surprised this was found at a Target, not a Walmart. I live in Spokane, and let me tell you, the skanky moms shop at Walmart, college students and younge families shop at Target
Asking your kid what thong is sexier? Wrong.
Threatening blunt force trauma towards a mom in front of their kid? Extremely wrong. I’m surprised no one said something sooner.
He didn’t do it asshat, he just wanted to. As all sane people should. Some people should just be neutered so they can’t inflict themselves on any helpless children.
!?
doesnt’ this fall under Parenting Fail ?
No, it’s an “apology for drugs” fail
I would so love to convince myself that this one isn’t for real. Unfortunately, you look at the quality of modern parenting and…yeah.
“and cry a little.” Would be how I would have ended that.
So it would have been okay if it had been her elementary-school aged daughter?
How did you infer that?
I think that Drew infered that by the fact that he emphasized SON, meaning that it was worse than if it was a daughter.
Yes, but even so I’m sure he didn’t mean it was okay if it was a daughter. Just that it might be slightly better…
I’m quite sure “Son” “Daughter” or “Child” did not make a difference to OP in this context. Many people say “Son/Daughter” instead of “Child” without having sexist thoughts.
Stop being so politically correct and live.
Maybe the emphasis was to show relationship rather than gender – it wasn’t just some random child.
All things considered it would have been more interesting if it was just a random kid… or heck if it was the OP’s son. That would’ve made my day.
I think that you guys might be wrong here…drew has a point because this guy said: elementary school aged SON. If he didn’t want it to sound so sexist, he could have put it all in caps, might have had a bit more emphasis too
I would have used the phrase “tax deduction”.
I agree. He was putting emphasis on the fact that it was her child. Not the fact that he was a boy.
who implied that at all? O_o
I think they were trying to emphasise the “its her child!” thing rather than the child’s gender, its not the best written thing in the world, but then again one doesn’t expect FaceBook statuses to be held to such rigorous standards.
Pretty sure it was just emphasizing that it was her child not what gender it was….
Beaten… damn I must have waited awhile to finally comment lol
Low battery.
4 bars.

Andrew is right.
Yes, he sure is…
I agree.
“which one of these will make you a new brother or sister, jimmy?”
Yeah, just to put it in simple terms.
har FTW
gross
Lucky kid.
BAhahah, gross.
Yes, he sure is…
….no.
Last I checked, elementary-age boys are usually grossed out by girls and their cooties.
Not this one
Ahah, I used to chase those boys.
NOOOOOOO! IT CAN’T BE! I WON’T BELIEVE IT! YOU CAN’T BE PEDOBEAR!… Or can he…?
she*
*it
No one knows the gender of the pedobear
haha jk.
that’s pretty sad….poor kid.
Chandlurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
I’d be scarred for life if I were that child. But then again my mom was in her 40′s when I was in elementary school so I have a bit of a right to.
hawt
Am I the only one who does not know what ‘Target’ is?
Target is like a slightly hipper version of Walmart here in the US.
Am I the only one surprised this happened at a Target and not a Walmart?
Yes, probably.
Actually, no he isn’t.
Target must’ve been having a sale on thongs. For the most part, trash like this in my area gravitate towards Walmart, and leave Target in relative peace.
Or maybe The Walmart closest to her is farther away? Someone better tell corporate quick so they can build one.
A supermarket store like “Bilka”
It’s pronounced “Tar-ZHAY.”
lolz, i’m totally pronouncing it that way from now on!
I assume the son’s name is Oedipus.
Lmfao, total comment win…
LOL! GREEK MYTHOLOGY WIN!!!
Win, win, win!!!
LOL I should’ve thought of that.
that guy has a low battery.
Oh my god…really? That’s a fail on that mom’s part.
It was a fail, but at least she only her them up in her hands and asked which was better… Modelling the g-string for her son and then asking which he preferred would have been much much worse.
hahahahahaha
Wow at Target? Usually I have to go to Walmart to meet mothers of that caliber.
So are you saying you troll for skanky moms??
I’m doin’ your mom. Yes, yours!
First saw her in the Walmart picking out your drawers.
Big Dolly Parton hair like an 80s prom queen,
but her ass was looking good all up in those mom jeans.
I love you.
Yeah they tend to be less demanding.
Don’t skip over the RJW. It’s there to be noticed!
oh noooo! I meant RWJ
…and then get her phone number. Gigitty-goo
Aw tha’s naaaastay.
Am I the only one who read this comment in a Cleveland voice?
No… No you are not.
Absolutely not.
I’d believe it. I was in Target the other day too, interestingly enough, and a 40-something year old mom was dragging her primary school-aged kids through the bra section asking them to find a “nice 38D”.
a bra doesn’t have to be something sexual. if she said “slutty 38D” or “sexy 38D” or something, then that’d be gross
Well “Nice” implies she expects her son to have taste in female lingerie. Kind of awkward to say the least.
I’m not really seeing a problem with that.
I’m not sure a child is supposed to know what a “Nice” bra is. And that should definitely not be encouraged by the parents.
I’m also not seeing a problem with big boobs
This is why I hate people, I kind of wish the guy “had” responded with blunt force trauma, but then I’d be no better than them…
If he had responded with blunt force trauma, we wouldn’t have known about it because he’d have been in jail instead of posting this to his facebook.
Not having to get home to post. That and not having to wait for the cops to arrest you before posting! Shwing!
I think it would have been better, if he had.
“Granted, I was at Target – but still! When a skanky 20 something mom is holding up two different thongs and asking her elementary school aged SON which panties he thinks are “sexier”, I felt a need to intervene. Legally. With blunt force trauma.

Elementary school age boy? He’d have suggested ones with spiderman or transformers on them, right?
win
*thinks about transformers thong*
awesome
Now I want one.
Optimus Prime all in that ass.
Wait, did he get her number or not?
I guess Walmart was closed that day.
My thoughts exactly….
but sure, you can look at THESE toys.
OMG! You’re low on battery.
What I want to know is when did Brittney Spears start shopping at Target?
brittney spears doesnt wear panties
Britney Spears spells her name with one ‘T’
You must be so proud of that wonderful piece of information, that you couldn`t resist sharing… for future reference, don`t bother
And we don’t know how she spells her panties because she doesn’t wear any!
maybe he’s a midget? i’m sure there are some women who have that midget fetish just like there are some midgets who have that ditsy, taller female fetish?
I actually love this person.
Leave them be, Andrew. She’s trying to teach her son the right sexual path.
The real question is: What was Andrew doing in the ladies’ underwear section of Target?
They put stuff like that closer to the front of the store to make it easier for the most frequent shoppers to find it. One must go through the women’s department at my local Kmart in order to get to the men’s department. That, or take the really long way around through electronics, hardware, gardening, and automotive. :->
He was buying something for his daughter.
He was on the prowl for skanky 20 year olds. He was upset at this one for 2 reasons.
1. He had already pictured himself “all over that” in his mind, and then saw she had a kid.
2. She asked her SON’s opinion on the thongs, and not his.
This is just gross. He should go to the sports section of Target, get an aluminum bat, find the women and knock some sense into her.
Maybe it wasn’t HER son
You mean she just grabbed some random small child to judge her underwear choices?
Classy.
Yeah, it makes the whole thing much more acceptable.
I think he means she has the kind of relationship with this child that only two consenting adults should have…
REPEAT
i would have asked Brittany Spears for her autograph… then maybe beat her.
Quick, Andrew! Go get a ball bat while I distract security!
I’ll get the little one out of the way…someone restrain her with the thongs.
This would be funnier if I could convince myself that it hadn’t actually happened. :p
To be honest – Target’s near me are nice – wayyy above Wal-Mart. If this kind of filth was there on a regular basis I’d be appalled. If this is a one time thing, then it is still wrong but hey, “Peopleofwalmart.com” exists for a reason.
Stores usually aren’t responsible for their customers’ social interaction and parenting. They usually just want them to buy something and get out =P
That’s not something I would ever feel the need to ask my daughter… ever. I don’t care if she’s an adult, that’s just not a question I would ever want to hear from my mom… ever. People, that’s how you make serial killers. Ugh.
Future Norman Bates.
This has to be the most bad-a$$ Failbook post I’ve seen in a long time….AWESOME!!
maybe it was just her midget boyfriend
I seriously would have called child services.Maybe ranted the skank into tears. Still funny though.
Gotta love America…..

Thanks for the failbook love!
Yeah that’s what I thought of. Her son, not some kid she just happened to glance at.
Still, I would’ve followed her with a shovel, threateningly…
This post is the only sign of intelligent life on FB. Thanks for renewing my faith in humanity, if not skanky 20 something moms.
While a bit disturbing, there’s nothing inherently illegal here. Also, I find it interesting that the people who threaten physical violence are generally the ones who would run in terror from it.

So true about that last part!
Can you take screenshots on iPhones now? I don’t have one
They were always able to take screenshots afaik – just press the home button and the on/off button at the same time and it does an image capture of the live screen.

Wow, I wish he posted a pic of her. I love young hotties
That is just ‘pants’
