Questionable straw shape upsets mother

A mother says the straws she bought for her three-year-old daughter were shaped like a male sex organ.

Andrea Bailey says she went shopping at the Ashland Wal-Mart and bought a package of fun straws for her three 3-year-old daughter, Ashlynn.



Bailey says Ashlynn came in and used one shaped like a heart. A couple others in the package, though, were shaped like something different.

“There are two of them that are shaped like the male private area”, said Bailey. “I called Wal-Mart and they very rude with me about it. They acted like I was lying, like I was making it all up. You know, I would never make something up like that, especially about my little girl. But, that's just how they treated me and it’s just not right.”

With news video and a poll: What is your take on the straws? Toy, Rocket, or other child-friendly shape? Male sex organ?
