[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was in the library playroom with my 3 year old today and there was a grandmother with her nine or ten month grandchild.  My child took a toy out of the baby’s hand to play with it and the grandmother said, “please don’t take toys out of his hand.  Please give it back to him”.  My child walked over to me and I told her to give it back.  She did and the grandmother said thank you.

No big deal, right?  No one did anything wrong, right?  I just feel embarrassed and judged now and keep thinking about how I should have said something first.  [b]Or the grandmother took it all way too seriously and had no business correcting my kid. [/b] [/quote]

Oh lord. Are you serious with this? Your kid took a toy out of a baby's hand. You need to tell your child that she can't take toys from other kids. You should have told her that when you first saw it, but the grandmother of the baby did it instead. As she should have when you didn't say anything. You need to teach your child that she can't just take things out of other people's hands. This is something that needs to be explicitly taught in these situations.

The grandmother handled the situation well. You did not handle it well. [/quote]
