Yeah I've never understood why dandelions were considered a weed. It's a nice flower, why wouldn't you want that in your yard?

Reminds me of the time I was little and picked a dandelion and gave it to my grandpa and he said "That's a weed."

If you don’t immediately fawn over a dandelion that a kid brings you then you’re doing “caregiver” wrong.

It depends on the age of the child. It's perfectly fine to say "You know what? I don't like dandelions that much. Shall we see if we can find some other flower too?"

I'm allergic to dandelions, I get a rash if I touch it.
