I have very few nonnegotiables in my life but one is if you see a child with a lemonade stand -
You MUST stop
You MUST overpay
You MUST tell them it's delish

Always! They're working harder than a lot of people baking in the hot sun. They deserve the love

My kids run a stand at least nice a year.

We thank you for your support.

Also make sure @chasesommer claims his $Degen this cycle, I dropped him a stack last week.

I’m a chaos tornado wrapped in a mom bun, armed with baby wipes, existential dread, and SPF. @boysclub maxi 🧢 | Mom of 3 | 📍DEN

But also, if you’re a kid in 2025 and you don’t accept Venmo… you’re NGMI

I totally get it! I almost never have cash but in the summer I try to for this reason. It just makes their day when they see you coming

I’m gonna remember this - I pass them from time to time - usually in a hurry - and then I’m like dammit. Why didn’t I stop?

After those exchanges I'm like this externally: ☺️

Internally:

Yes!! Whatever it is theyre trying to pay for this summer means something and i appreciate the hustle

 I want to encourage them but like come on dude show me you at least appreciate it 😂

I'll go out of my way to an ATM to get a $20 just to pay for a $0.50 over sweetened cup of lemonade sold by a youngster.

Though it does kinda bum me out when I say "keep the change" they're just like "oh okay" and not gleaming with joy like I would as a kid 😅
