Anything today? Last week I saw Clara break a glass water bottle in the dollar area of target and just put the glass pieces back and took her away from it.

You should have told someone. What if another little kid came along, tried to grab one, and got cut by the broken glass you left?
I'm not scandalized by the breaking of the item, but the hiding of it. I'm sure bringing it to their attention wouldn't have been a big deal and then it wouldn't be around to potentially hurt other people.
That being said, I'm also one of those that if I change my mind on an item I put it wherever I am at the moment. My H hates that about me. Unless it's a freezer or cold item, I'll take them back.

I mean you wouldn't have been the first parent whose kid broke something in Target. And it was a dollar? So even if you had to pay for it, it's a dollar.
Also, I would be so pissed if my kid cut his finger on that glass.
I worked retail, I bring the stuff I don't want anymore to the registers. They don't care and would rather you do that then throw it wherever.
FFFC: I called in sick today. Trying to get stuff done around the house plus tonight DD and I are in this fashion show for my aunts shop and it's right by my work. If I went into work I would have had an hour commune each way then leave early so I can go back home to get DD then drive back again. Didn't want to spend 4 hours in the car.
DH and I had a screaming crying fight in front of DS last night. He was in the other room playing but could still hear it and when I went to check on him, he seemed in shock. I felt horrible and held him and explained that I wasn't mad at him and I was sorry for yelling. He seemed fine minutes later but I still feel guilty.
Also most stores are good about broken items. They typically send it back to the distributor to get credit for it and tell the customer not to worry about paying for it.
My parents and I are taking the kids out of town for a family thing. H is staying home with the dog. I have been trying to make him feel bad about not coming but truthfully I need a break from him and his crankiness.

I'm sorry. That's so hard and it sucks to feel guilt on top of feeling shitty about the fight.
I thought she picked up the pieces and put them back- they may be out of reach of any children. I don't understand the flames.
What if I went digging in the $1 section and cut myself?
It's meggypoo1 though. I imagine her being more careful than to leave them where it wouldn't the obvious to an employee and anyone else. I don't know. She may deserve the flames but I'm withholding judgment for more details.

This. It was out of reach and in a place you would see it if you were an adult. It was also like $5. Plus it was after multiple meltdowns. I needed to just get the fuck out.

I hope so. If someone did get hurt the store would be liable. It could cost way more than $1 In the end.
She was careful enough to pick up the pieces of glass, I doubt she's going to hide them in like a grab bin where you may get a scarf or you may get a shard of glass...

Your op made it sound like the shelf of water bottles was in reach of your kid and you put the broken glass back there. Even out of reach, and if an adult should be able to see it, you can't guarantee and adult would see it. If your kid broke open a bag of chips and you ran away, I'd probably laugh, but broken glass can hurt someone.

The glass water bottles were on the bottom shelf. I picked up all the glass pieces (which was really on two) and placed them in an empty shelf on top so no other kids would get hurt. I should have brought it to someone. It wasn't because I didn't want to pay for it; it was the multiple meltdowns that happened and needed to just leave. See my point before I GBCM14!!
I have a confession from Easter. Matt and I were driving up north and he was touching buttons in my car and then all of a sudden I see an image light up near my dash. I was all freaked and asked him what he was touching that made this light come on?
He said oh I was trying to get to this other thing and hit your heated seats...............I got this car from my Mom and my old car had heated seats and I worshipped them all winter long. I have looked and saw nothing and have actually been really pissed all winter that my mom gives me a car and it didn't even have better features than my older one.
Like I for real have been holding this grudge for months. Lol to me.
I'm dreading this weekend. DH has a con that he is helping organize and though he will be home to sleep will be gone ALL of the next three days. I'm kind of taking it out on him. I feel guilty about it, but the man still thinks that me going grocery shopping alone counts as kid free alone time.
PS he does watch the kids and give me other alone time too, just when I need a break that's something he suggests. Like I should be excited or something.
athn64, DH is the same way about grocery shopping. I think it came from when DS was a newborn, I did like grocery shopping alone because it was my only break. So when I complain now, DH is like, oh, but I thought you liked grocery shopping. No, I just like being alone.
I just ate a random slice of pizza from the kitchen at work. It was pizza friday but i had to go out during lunch so missed it, i got back and there was 1 lonely slice sitting on a plate and all the boxes were bagged up for trash. After i got half way through the slice i realized it had some kind of donair sauce on it, pizza doesn't come that way. I might have just ate pizza off of someone elses plate

I've left freezer/cold items out at the checkout if I change my mond. Last week DD was whining that she was hungry in Target. I let her eat a banana off the bunch in the cart, she only at half. I stashed the half of banana on a random shelf and just paid for the rest of the bunch at check out

Yuck to half a banana just rotting on a shelf somewhere. I'm glad you all don't shop at my Targets.

I'm sorry, I really think you guys need to do something soon though. Counciling, trial separation I'm not sure how severe you want to go at first but some steps need to be taken it is very obvious you are unhappy right now in your relationship. I mean this as a friend so how I'm not being offensive.

Yeah DD broke a jar of tomato sauce in grocery store one time, I told and they were super nice about it and wouldn't let me pay for it

I understand we have all done things in desperation or at least I know I have
