No, I'm not the BergerMister Misterburger. I just think things are getting a little out of control and I want it to END!
When I was growing up, the loudest toy we had was one of those bubble things you pushed and it clicked and popped the wooden balls inside it. Now days we got so darn many Noise Toys it's gone beyond the point of entertainment.
Okay, sure I admit to buying my son a drum set when he was four and living with ex-Mrs. West. But that isn't even comparable to what is on the market now.
And some of these Noise Toys, I'll be damned if I can figure how to turn them off- Yes, I have learned if you smash them, eventually they will stop! But then there are some of them that just go off periodically, as if to entice the kid to go pick it up and make more Noise.
And get a load of this one. It's set to go on with vibrations. I figured this one evening while relaxing late at night and the things starts laughing. I thought Grandma West was visiting<ng> After several times of different bursts of noise, I figured it out. It was the cars. Every time a car would drive past, the damn thing would sound off. And out the door it went!
So if anyone else shares my frustrations, just post a "yes" or "yea" here and maybe we can make a difference, NOT! |
