When my DD was preschool age those parents would really bug her. She would run off the equipment and wait until they left.
Think about it- it’s normal and healthy for a 4 year old to encounter another 4 year old at the top of the slide and have to negotiate for a turn. I want my DD to learn to be around unfamiliar kids in a safe environment! That’s why public playgrounds exist.
It’s really weird for a 4 year old to be at the top of the slide trying to decide if they engage in the same conversation with a grown adult man. I don’t want my DD to have to figure out when she should or shouldn’t talk to an adult man who she doesn’t know. That’s not why public playgrounds exist!
Amen! A voice of sanity.
Parents belong on benches unless they’re pushing swings or spotting tiny toddlers/babies.
