Questionable Straw Shape Upsets Mother

"ASHLAND, Ky. (WSAZ) -- A mother says the straws she bought for her three-year-old daughter were shaped like a male sex organ.

Andrea Bailey says she went shopping at the Ashland Wal-Mart on Thursday, February 28th, and bought a package of fun straws for her three 3-year-old daughter, Ashlynn.

Bailey says Ashlynn came in and used one shaped like a heart. A couple others in the package, though, were shaped like something different.

“There are two of them that are shaped like the male private area,” said Bailey. “I called Wal-Mart and they very rude with me about it. They acted like I was lying, like I was making it all up. You know, I would never make something up like that, especially about my little girl. But, that's just how they treated me and it’s just not right.”

I supposed it could be taken that way, and who would want their little girl sucking on a...... straw like that. It could be a rocket like most seem to think; maybe mom needs to get her mind out of the gutter.

What's so hard about simply removing it from the pack and saying "this one is for mommy and daddy" and leave it at that???

I would not have thought of that first thing - especially given the colors they are in! Sometimes I think people just look for things to get upset about.

Haha! Thats great! I wouldn't have though about them like that at first glance.
