[quote=Anonymous]A little kid ( about 2-3 year old) pretend his finger was a gun on both hands & do "bang" sound chasing after my almost 4 year old on the public playground. My son was scared of the little boy, not sure if it was finger gun part or chasing/running after him part or both. He kept whining, running to hide behind me a few times but he still wanted to play hide & seek with him. I have never exposed anything relating to "gun" to my son & I think he got confused why the little boy kept finger bang him in his face, and that's not how hide & seek or how tag game play. That little boy seemed not to understand any English, and his dad kept looking at the phone the whole time. I felt uncomfortable with the situation, but I knew that the other kid was just playing & no harm would be done.

Gun topic is so sensitive, and it is wrong that the little boy doing those gun gestures on a playground. I have no rights to judge other parent parenting, but what would you have said or taught your kids relating to these matters? My son had a bad day at the playground because of that little boy. And on the way home, he kept saying that the little boy hurt him.[/quote]
