re: If your cashier asks to hold your baby, yes or no?

I wouldn’t ask to hold a stranger’s baby, much less walk out of sight with it.

She actually married her to a Mexican baby while she was in the kitchen. You know, for the green card.

My daughter was born in Germany and had blond hair and blue eyes. We left Europe when she was almost 3 years old. Germans in public could not get enough of her. They would cross crowded restaurants and stores to get a closer look. Men and women. They almost could not resist touching her hair....it was pretty uncomfortable to be honest....they could not resist the temptation to see the perfect Aryan baby.

It depends. I frequent the same convenience stores for years and know damn near every cashier. They can hold the kids. If I don't know you, hell naw.

I guess this is a benefit of having a baby in 2020. No random strangers asked to hold him.

I handed mine off to a black female every day for 16 years and they turned out fine. I let her drive them too.

Thats not a stranger...

What if they have nose rings or visible tats?

Was the young woman attractive? That is likely why your wife was upset. A dad with a cute baby is a big turn-on for other women.

I would probably let the cashier hold mine. The grocery store I go to is a smaller chain, and it's almost always a teenage to early 20s aged girl at the register. Seem like nice people.

I let this waitress at a restaurant hold him. He was reaching up like he wanted her to pick him up. She was about my mom's age, so probably had kids and grandkids of her own. I made sure to keep my eyes on them though.

In Norway on weekends with good weather in the summer, parents will leave sleeping babies outside of restaurants in their stroller while they eat. If the infant starts crying, a passerby will tap on the window or go inside to find the parents.

First time I saw it thought they were crazy, but Norway is a country that really spends the money to educate and take care of kids. One of their major holidays celebrates children.

Good people.
