[quote="not Karent"](I am not Karen.) If she apologized later for the mistake, I would not pin the fault on her permanently. We all make mistakes from time to time, especially under stress or on busy days. The key is to learn from our mistakes, but that's easier said than done...[/quote]

Do we not have better things to do then talk about Karen and children putting their shoes on the wrong feet? <br /> <br />Why dont we look at our lives and be happy for what we have. We have the option of going to the BR because we have money. How about people who are on the street and the least of their worries are a danish at the blue rooster and only worry is if they will make it through the night. Lets be thankful we live in a great community and have options on what we can and cannot do everyday. We have our health or money our friends etc..

I have no stake in the business or the owners whatsoever. My limited first-hand experiences with the Blue Rooster has only been positive and all of the people I know who've been there like it. Obviously at least one person doesn't. You’re entitled to your opinion of course but it is pretty obvious to a neutral reader that there is a grudge involved here. <br /> <br />I'll sign my name.

If she was that bad do you think she'd not only apologize on the blog, but also mention it there? She'd simply ignore it and not mention it at all. Now that this poster's motives are clear and people are calling them, they are now trying even harder to defend their position. <br /> <br />As a parent, I am the first to say I am shocked at how some parents treat their kids like idols and how they can do no wrong, just as I am when I see overly tough parents. I know one parent who won't tell her kids they put shoes on the wrong foot instead saying that they'll learn from the mistake without judgement, the dad and I are friends and he complains about things like this all the time. So perhaps the mom felt that the kid should have been treated in some special manner or was truly treated improperly. Who knows, but blaming Karen doesn't seem right.</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row2"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>not Karent</b></span></td> <td class="row2" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Thu, Apr 16 2009, 8:47 am EDT<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: Blue Rooster Article and Video....</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody">(I am not Karen.) <br /> <br />If she apologized later for the mistake, I would not pin the fault on her permanently. <br /> <br />We all make mistakes from time to time, especially under stress or on busy days. <br /> <br />The key is to learn from our mistakes, but that's easier said than done...</span></td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> <tr> <td width="22%" align="left" valign="top" class="row1"><span class="name"><a name=""></a><b>Poker Face</b></span></td> <td class="row1" height="28" valign="top"><table width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0"> <tr> <td width="100%"><img src="templates/subSilver/images/icon_minipost.gif" width="12" height="9" alt="Post" title="Post" border="0" /><span class="postdetails">Posted: Thu, Apr 16 2009, 8:30 am EDT<span class="gen"> </span> Post subject: Re: Blue Rooster Article and Video....</span></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><hr /></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2"><span class="postbody"></span><table width="90%" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3" border="0" align="center"><tr> <td><span class="genmed"><b>Guest wrote:</b></span></td> </tr> <tr> <td class="quote">The comments about the lack of respect for children and sensitivity about the review interested me enough to track down this blog for the first time. <br /> <br />I have to say, someone here seems to have it in for the Blue Rooster.
