[quote=jsmith123][quote=Anonymous]My sons have a friend like that. He’s super obnoxious and rude. We encourage them to play with other kids, but obviously kids have their own preferences. So we insisted that if the kid is mean to younger sibling, our son has to speak up and tell the kid to knock it off. [b]It’s an unpopular opinion here, but there is a great deal of wisdom in kids learning to tell other kids to stop being rude.[/b] Rude kids learn that nobody wants to be their friend when they are annoying and your kids learn to protect weaker children and confront bad behavior.[/quote] I agree. We did something similar with my DS and a friend who can play very physically and roughly. My kid would say he didn't like playing like that and just walk away. Ideally the other child learns that kind of behavior won't make him any friends.[/quote]
