Toy Parrot Swears At Child

A shop in Brighton, England has sold a toy parrot to a mother, which decided to shout swear words at her daughter when she pulled the toys cord.

Tina brought the parrot from a toy shop when her daughter was throwing a paddy and hoped that it would help keep her quite. But when she handed the toy to Roxy and pulled the cord, the first thing that came out of the toy parrot’s mouth was “Oi! What are you looking at a***hole.” rightly shocked, but not knowing if she has imaged what had just happened, Tina decided to pull the cord for a second time. The parrot made a small sound and then came out with “Sod off, sod off”. This caused a huge amount of embarrassment on Tina’s part as everyone in the area turned to see where the swearing was coming from. She turned bright red and quickly hurried off down the street to avoid more glaring eyes.

Later, when Roxy wasn’t around, Tina tried the parrot’s cord some more to see if any other foul expressions has been entered into its database.Among the most offensive, “I’m going to rip your head off and s**t down your neck.” and “Oi! B****r off.It is simple not acceptable for toys like this to be available for people to buy when all they are after is something innocent for their children says Tina. She also mentioned that she will be sticking to dolls house toys from now on.

Commercial director if the 99p stores, Hussian Lalanu has said sorry and admitted the toy should never have been on sale in the toy section. He said he will look into how something like this came about. Also looking into the story will be Brighton and Hove City Council’s trading standards.They have already said that such events should not be happening and although their are still details of the incident that have yet to be established they have already started look into ways to prevent its recurrence.
