Local Mother Has Mental Breakdown In Dressing Room

Authorities were called to Target on Main St. Friday morning after they received a call about a situation the store had in their fitting rooms.

Officials arrived after a call from a frightened fitting room attendant came through saying there was screaming, weeping, and what sounded like things being thrown at the mirror coming from the large fitting room where the woman had gone in with her children, ages 6, 4, 4, 1, and 1.

Come to find out, the weeping and screaming was coming from the mother who was found passing out snacks of all sorts to tame her children, and attempting to rip several swimsuits to shreds.

It appears that 29yr old Kate, mother of 5, had gone in with all the children to try on swimsuits. Why she would do that to herself, we don't know. She told an officer, "it was a last resort" and "I just can't seem to get out of the house alone these days" and "don't blame me, swimsuit shopping isn't healthy for anyone - it should be illegal!!"

She was released after promising to never, under any circumstance, enter the fitting room to try on bathing suits with all the children again. The police officers called it, "irrational" and "unnecessary torture" to put yourself in that kind of situation.

They are hoping that this can be a lesson to all mothers out there.

Well, not really. But that is the story I feel could potentially surface after I take all the girls with me today to find a swimsuit. Sweet Mercy, it has to be done.

Wish me luck!
