raising kids according to George Lopez...Why you crying??

i decided to take George Lopez on the road. I have a cd of his called Team Leader. it is one funny cd. while at Mcdonalds, i was arguing with my kids about them going on the play area.

daughter: can i go and play.

dad: yes...wait no you can't.

daughter: (while crying) why? i'll keep my shoes on.

dad: you need to have socks on.

son: let her go dad. she can keep her shoes on.

dad: NO!! you guys need to have shoes on.

daughter: (still crying)but why???

dad: (using George Lopez philosophy) Why you crying? Stop crying. Hey, you want to come back to McD's then stop crying. You want me to buy you a Happy Meal again, then get happy.

daughter: (while still crying and almost done) yeah! (sniffle) Ok.

dad: come on get happy. and i will buy you a happy meal the next time we come.

meanwhile dad had to show my son the sign. kids must take off shoes and wear socks on while in the play are at all times. it was a had to be there moment. it was funny.
