This is not really the same thing, but when I worked at a group home, I took my girls to the mall. It was pretty obvious that we were not family or anything...I had a blond skater girl, a short skinny punk girl, and a black girl with me. This girl who worked there came up and started grilling us saying, "so, are you their mom?" Now, I was 23 and these girls were 16....So I say no. She says, "Are you guys sisters?" We say No. "Cousins? Friends?" Finally we say, "ya, we're friends." But who does that? I was so pissed! Way to make them feel like weirdos!
