Turn taking skills and how to deal with obsessive and mean-spirited parents

"Another kid raced ahead of my DC to get an ice cream sandwich sample that was being handed out at COSTCO. The kid's mom made him apologize to my DC, which was nice..."

This is the thing. I never see this happen. It seems to be be the norm for kids not to wait their turn and for their parents to do nothing. Is that what you did op? Did you expect everyone to just tolerate your child's behavior?

Please go back to the private schools forum or whatever corner you crawled from. This forum is not some for self-righteous judgemental bitches like you.

Gosh, it's about time Jeff made SN kids forum password protected.

The lady was probably pretty hungry. It was an instinctual response to keep any competitors from impeding or delaying her efforts to feed herself and her hungry brood. This effect can be observed at restaurants, cafes and ice cream parlors throughout the region. Be very cautious when approaching such an individual around feeding time.

Or maybe just hormonal. PMS can be a real bitch sometimes

I've been pleased to notice lately that Jeff and Maria have been monitoring this forum and deleting the comments that bash the parents of SN kids who are genuinely struggling and seeking support. There have been a few threads lately where I've winced at the cruelty of a comment and within minutes it was gone. I really appreciate that!

I am a mom with a sn child and have been in the trenches fighting for my dc for a very long time. I'm not a bitch. Do you correct your dc in public when he does these things?

Not the OP, but I always correct my SN DS in public and make sure he apologizes. But I won't let anyone yell at him.

Her kid is bad. That's why. It has nothing to do with his "special" need.

Get the fuck off this board, you stupid skank

Sounds like you have some "special needs" of your own.

Honestly, you're being unrealistic. Coddling yourself and others into a protective environment doesn't foster coping skills. You may feel "protected" here, and then you'll flip the moment anyone IRL acts in a way you deem "unfair" or "insensitive."

That's segregation, and something you don't want for SN kids in school. It shouldn't be catered to elsewhere either.

I'm the poster op called the bitch. Op, do you work on this skill your dc? Do you stop your dc when he/she doesn't share? If the mom raised her voice at your dc that is out of line, but if she spoke up and told your child to wait his/her turn, the problem is yours.

OP, we both know we have it harder as parents. Everyone judges everyone else's parenting and those of us with sn kids get judged more harshly. I'm not trying to do that to you.
