My personal favorites are the ones who hate their noses being wiped so you have to do the dab and it sets of the crying anyway so even more snot. They see the Vaseline(or whatever else the parent has provided for their sore little nose) coming and make a run for it. No one wants to put someone else’s child in a soft headlock to wipe a nose, so it stays.
There will be snot.
Some kids wipe willing, will even bring you a tissue because they don’t like the feeling of it. That’s the batch of kids I have now.
I’ve had kids that need a little humor, some need a little coddling, some seem to think it’s a bit of a snack and don’t want to give it up, others will just fight it tooth and nail because they’re little kids and that’s what they do. So it stays and you let the parents know you don’t want it there either and then dart off to go wipe another nose of a willing child. Because that’s probably what you have done all day anyway and don’t really need a dressing down about one fighter’s crusty nose.
