RE: Is Common Sense Dead? - 5 Year Old Girl Fined £150 for Lemonade Stand
What the actual fck! That's just pitty nicking from that guy. I understand that there are regulations but come on.. This should be for adults. Kids need to explore things and can do such things. They probably make $25 on their best day. That's not much for an adult but for a kid its a lot.
They should be ashamed of theirselves!
Exactly my thoughts too. It is pretty disgusting and it is not protecting anyone.
Precisely. Those kind of people just wanna snitch on something because their lives are crap. Giving a fine to a little kid, and even a big fine, is just terrible. That kid is not scarred and doesn't want to do that kind of stuff anymore that's just a shame.
When you see a little kid sell something with joy, it lights up your world. Even though the lemonade can be disgusting, you still buy it to see that smile and make her day. I see some kids in my neighbourhood do it sometimes and some even make it theirselves with real lemons. Honestly it's disgusting haha, but they are so happy when they sell it. I always ask them what they are saving up for, and one kid even said she was saving up for new books to learn new stuff. Without any hesitation I gave her a fee afterwards haha!
Exactly. These kids should be encouraged. She could be the next Richard Branson.
Haha exactly! An empowered business woman that starts business one after an other!
There should be a 'free' zone where those kids should be encouraged. When it's your own front yard you should be able to do it!
I suspect in your own yard you could get into trouble for conducting business in a residential zone!
