[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]

Hard no to the bolded.  Yes, you should have said something first.  I find it interesting that instead of giving the toy back (which was a perfectly reasonable request, even to a three year old), your kid walked over to you with the toy, and you had to repeat the request to your kid.  Maybe that is why you are embarrassed.
