0 Fileobrother Posted May 12, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 12, 2009 o.k. but how does either flip flop or thong or sandal send children bawling? C'mon! Are you serious? If I ever said "thong" to one of my nephews, they'd be all, "Ewww, grosss, thongs!" Bawling was maybe not the right word, but it rhymed, and it was close enough to it's purpose.

Nope, you're really close with the first part, I don't understand why you said brat, but in any case, keep guessing, or you can just look at the answer posted a couple spoilers back.

Sorry. I looked brat up, and it is a rough garment for protective covering (like an apron). For some reason I mis-remembered it as to do with shoes or boots.
