[QUOTE="AppleCori, post: 736496, member: 16024"] I can do all things with my own kids, but with other peoples’ kids—no way. A few years ago we were in Yellowstone with my brother, sis-in-law, and their oldest grandchild who was around four or five years old at the time. My brother and his wife went somewhere or other and the rest of us were looking at Old Faithful himself, waiting for it to erupt on cue, when his grandson told me he needed to spit out his gum or whatever was in his mouth. I didn’t want him to spit it out on the ground and I didn’t have anything for him to spit it in, so I told him to wait till the geyser went off and we would find a trash can. He whined and complained for the next few minutes and after the event, we started to leave and by then he had a mouth full of goopy spit. He showed it to me because he was having a hard time keeping it in his mouth, and I started gagging and almost threw up right in front of a bunch of other tourists. I mean, I was literally retching, but I managed not to actually throw up, luckily. My hubby was shocked, because I had a young child myself as well as three adult kids, and he had never seen me do that. I was in worse shape than the kid was. [/QUOTE]
