premise: I wear many hats ... The usual kerfuffles were made even more fun by the tired and temperamental three year old flower girl , my new DIL 's daughter . She was having none of this nonsense and kept running away down the path , or alternately Velcro - ing herself to DIL 's leg . Why did the daughter in laws child stick to the daughter in laws leg ?
hypothesis: Velcro is designed to be an adhesive , the child is stuck .
