Dear Mother Smoking Outside Of My Work Place,

I realize I am not a mother and therefore I cannot fully comprehend the responsibility that rests upon your shoulders. I do not have a child, let alone four or five, as it appears you do. I work and study full time, so I cannot afford such pleasantries as getting my nails done at the salon next door to my studio as you do. I realize you may need a break from the intense labor of being a full time mother, but in this case perhaps it is best to leave your kids at home. Now, now...before you get upset mother smoking outside of my work place...please let me remind you that your children are playing in a very busy parking lot (unsupervised )as we speak. I realize you may have no one to supervise your children at home while you get your nails done, but is it really better to pretend you are supervising your children as they run around a busy parking lot instead of leaving them safe at home...out of the way of that giant, black sports utility vehicle that is about to back into your toddler? Good job, mother smoking outside of my work place, you managed to yell at your toddler to abandon his game behind that monstrous SUV and continue to play said game in front of my studio window. Oh, and you flipped the drivers of that SUV the bird for asking you to monitor the where abouts of your children, what a good role model you are mother smoking outside of my work place. Mother smoking outside of my work place, perhaps you are unaware, you lit another cigarette as your trouble making toddler appears to be licking the display window of my studio. You do not have to actually move from your smoking place, because you have managed to discipline your child with an order and name calling.

Thank you, Mother Outside of My Work Place, for being aware that your child is half naked in front of costumers.
