People Are Taking a Kid's Lemonade Hustle Way Too Seriously

1

My daughter made $110 on her lemonade stand today, in like an hour. Turned out people were handing her $5s and $10s and she was just assertively saying thank you for the tip, and not offering change.

This is an example of No Good Deed Goes Unpunished. Here, nice folks wanted to do the kid a favor, and they were manipulated out of their own hard- earned dollars. Dad needs a moral compass to teach the kid. This is nothing to be proud of.

If you don’t have the funds to be manipulated by a child then… don’t be manipulated by a child. You grown as hell, ask for your change. Th is wrong w y’all 💀

What if the kid says no and pockets your bill. You gonna force the kid to give it back? Call the police? What is your next step after asking for your change and they say no? This kid had a pretty good idea that no one would do any of that so took advantage of it. Kid’s a dick.

All the ppl getting mad in the comments. Ya’ll don’t have kids do you? This thread shows me how much society has wrapped around hating kids and expecting them to be perfect. At any point any adult could have said hey that’s not how this works.

If you hand a $10 to a child at a lemonade stand and just assume they have the cash to give you change … you don’t deserve change. Good for her.

Takes a shady-ass parent to raise shady-ass kids.

See? This is why 90% of start ups fail. Boasting about how you actively steal from people on twitter is wrong. Sure its $110 today but tomorrow it'll be $10 and the day after it'll have no business. https://t.co/3vcGk3V4s7

it’s insane to me how many people think the kid in this story and similar stories are intentionally manipulating the adults buying their lemonade

Reminds me of going to a bar and ordering a round. Bartender leaves my change on the counter near me. I leave it there so if I am ordering another round they take it out of that. They took it up and said thanks! I was so shocked I didn’t say anything but that was last round.

I think “manipulative” is way too harsh. If I handed a little girl a $5 and she said “Thank you for the tip!” excitedly, I would mostly think it’s adorable and let her keep it. Perhaps I’m an enabler 🤷🏾‍♀️

Kids on my street did this. 80p lemonade, i handed them 20 quid they just got super excited and were like "OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH."

Unfortunately I'm heartless and was like hang on a second.

On one hand, I’m with you, people are getting bent out of shape. On the other, do you have kids? My 3 year old would absolutely manipulate you out of house and home (without understanding the moral/social implications). We’re working on teaching him, but damn kids can be evil!

a) it’s pretty much customary to overpay a kid at a lemonade stand come on
b) why would you expect a kid to have change

You should write in to the lemonade stand’s corporate office and warn them about this

When my sister and I were kids, we would sit outside of our family's store with a lemonade stand, but charge nothing and just ask for tips. Turns out people were more likely to give us 1 or 2 dollars for a free drink that 50 cents for a paid one

Some of you are acting like this person said “you know a real cute thing my kid did today? Hold people at gunpoint and threaten to harm their dog”
