Its always exciting as a parent when your child demonstrates the desire and drive to work hard and earn something.
Running a lemonade stand is one of the simplest, best ways for youngsters to dip their toes into the working world.
Like many, my kids have created stands on several occasions, and its inspiring to watch them learn and grow through the experience. No book can teach your kid the value of a dollar. Working outside in the hot sun all day long most certainly can.
So, one California dad was pleased when his daughter decided shed try to take advantage of the summer sunshine and earn a few bucks. Richard LaRoche says his daughter got set up and was barely underway, when a man showed up. According to LaRoche:
"The man just pulled up next to her and asked for her business license and then told her Im calling the police and then got on the phone and began speaking as if he was talking to police. She was so scared that she came home crying and sobbing and said she didnt want to go to jail."

Some folks just need a good old fashioned ass kicking.
L
white girl.
Current events check:
WHAT was the race of the person who pulled this on her..?
Probably 95% chance, I’d say.
Good. Some reason and sanity in the land of fruits and nuts.
Probably some HOA goon.
We had one; embezzled the money. They didn’t put her in jail. I guess she paid it back.
Still, your assessment seems correct.
Priceless PR.
“Some folks just need a good old fashioned ass kicking”.
They sure do. This idiot needs one every day just for the hell of it.
I suggested to my girls that they put up a sign saying their lemonade was “free” and add the note “donations accepted”. Ashley misunderstood and wrote “expected” instead of “accepted”, but they still made close to $50 on a hot afternoon next to rush hour traffic.
Sounds like the outcome was another Dan’s Bake Sale moment.
Why do I get the strong suspicion that POS was a habitual tattler when he was a kid?
Asswipe.
I can alost guess his race!
Libtards could easily use at least one per day.
Why? If I was going to profile based on so little information I would guess older white male. Just a guess.
That's a clever misunderstanding. "Expected" is better.
I would too.

WHAT was the race of the person who pulled this on her..?
Probably 95% chance, Id say.
...Sorry, you might not know any black people personally...this is a white liberal woman type of thing. Minimum of 5 angry bumper stickers likely on her car, too.
What kind of a father lets his daughter set up a lemonade stand completely out of his supervision? It’s completely possible this is made up.
My guess too, only I would add “older white LIBERAL man”. I would put money on that.
