Where else?

Have you ever been in a store and seen a mom helping a kid shop for pants or shoes?
You know how "mom" always turns the kid around, checking for fit...tugging up the waist band and seeing how much room is left for tucking in a shirt or whatever?
Or "mom" will check the toe room of a shoe and have the kid walk up and down the aisle a few times?
Well here's a twist that I never expected...
Today I saw a mom helping her son shop for a proper holster for his carry gun.
They checked the fit of the pistol in several styles/colors/materials of holsters. He tried them on and the mom was helping switch from holster to holster and called me over to ask some advice.
I told them I'd often seen moms still helping older kids shop for clothes for special occasions or whatnot...but that holster shopping was a new one to me and I thought it was great mother/son bonding. :P
Where else but here? I love where I live.

Doesn't it warm the cockles of your heart to see kids being brought up right? That's a perfect example.
