I have a complaint about what i saw at the Walmart store today. As i was shopping, i kept hearing this baby crying, as i neared the Jewlery counter, i saw a women holding her child that was about 1 1/2 years old behind the counter. As it turned out, they were trying to have the babies ears pierced! The child was in so much distress and screming her little head off. I saw the mother holding the baby, and two other adult females standing their with the mother, as well as the Walmart Employee trying to hold the child still so that they can Pierce the ears!!! Baby screaming, people walking by shaking their heads in anger.
NO one stopped it.
I walked around for about 10 min. And returned to the area, and baby is still screming. About that time the Mother says "JUST DO IT" Hurry do the other ear! And the employee does as she says! That poor little child just screaming.
I said, from the end of the counter"to the employee, you should be ashamed of your self, you should not have done that to that baby. Well, the women holding the child went off on me, calling me all kinds of names, and then the other two wwomen with her started saying "we'll kick your &, mind your own f—king busniess. To be truthful, i was frighten for my own safty at that point.
I moved on to another part of the store to get way, waitted for them to leave the store. At the check out i ask for the manager to talk to me. He listen to my complait and said that he was not sure of the store ploicy, but he would look into it, i ask him to walk me to my car, and he did.
I DO NOT think the Walmart should allow thier employees to pierce the ears of children, that are screaming in fear as someone holds them down! This is not what i expect of WalMart. They should not be a part of this. I realize that parents get to make this dission about thier own children, but this is child abuse and Walmart should not allow it to happen in thier stores. I know that it hurts to get pierced, but this child was in distress long before the employee touched her with the gun, theirfor i feel like the walmart policy should be that they will not pierce a child if they are crying in fear and have to be restrined. Please tell me that you have a policy in place and that it was not followed in this case!
