ON THE STREET

This week the Southeast Missourian asked, "What do you think of reserved parking spaces at grocery stores for expectant mothers?"

Renee Tlapek, Cape Girardeau

"I think it would be nice to have them. I just had a baby seven months ago and at that last month you get pretty tired."

Gail Morris, Cape Girardeau

"I think it's a good idea. I wish they would have been around when I was...why not? They deserve every break they can get."

Sheila Beggs, Benton

"I think it's a great idea. Sometimes everyone needs a little extra help and that's the time that they might need to be closer to the door."

Bill Nolan, Malden

"There are places out here for people with a wheelchair...I wouldn't make a decision on that. They're in the happiness of their life. I don't think it's necessary."

Eric Resinger, Bonne Terre

"It's a good idea. The handicapped spaces...you could be disabled and still be able to walk and be able to make it to the store with no problem. ... So expectant mothers, they can't walk that well. They don't need to be walking long distances."
