Why is this still happening?!

we realized halfway through the drive that pickings were slim. My husband pulled off at a nearby exit and I saw the golden arches of a McDonald's just around the corner. We normally don't indulge in fast food , but it'd already been a long trek, and we had no business being picky.

Do I just tell her I have two girls? Do I ask for more information about the toys ? Do I refuse to answer? Ask to speak to a manager?While we waited for our order, I took my daughter to the bathroom. She asked,"What were you and that woman talking about?" I once again struggled for words, but as I opened my mouth, my kid kept talking:"Did she say I get a toy?! Is that true?" Her mind, thankfully, seemed to be elsewhere.

Up until then, no one had ever asked me about my child's gender before making a judgment call on what was"for" her.
