Most of us remember the movie Home Alone. In it, little Kevin McCallister is accidentally left behind as the family takes a vacation in Paris. Kevin makes the best of the situation and thwarts a robbery. The family from our clip today isn’t leaving on an extended overseas vacation. However, they did manage to reenact a portion of the movie. They left their eldest daughter at McDonald’s while getting a family meal at the local fast-food restaurant.
Kevin was only eight when he was left home alone. We should note that the daughter left at McDonald’s is a teenager. She was in no danger at the time. The entire family laughed when the parents finally realized they had forgotten a kid.
Another thing we should mention is that the two daughters in the back seat knew immediately they were leaving without their sister. They made a conscious decision NOT to say anything to their parents. That might be a whole new level of evil-sister syndrome. As they were driving away, the mom finally noticed the missing child. By this time, the entire family laughed uncontrollably, except maybe the sister had left at McDonald’s. In his favor, the dad immediately started figuring out how to get back around to pick up the missing daughter.
The clip ends before they get the daughter, but in a clip later, Autumn shows her and her sister hugging. One thing is sure — the family will be able to continue laughing about this for a long time. The daughters will have children of their own someday. If they’re like me, they will use this as a cautionary tale for their children to stay near mom and dad. Please share this laugh.
