[quote=Anonymous]Depending on context and tone, it might have been either rude or harmless ribbing. If rude, making the kid apologize is a good idea. If good fun, then a parent interfering and forcing the apology turns everything awkward. Offensive? Is parent A afraid of offending goblins? While the definition of offensive may be very similar to rude, I think that it has developed a slightly different connotation in recent years. I wouldn’t describe this interaction as offensive. Rudeness is sufficiently bad, in and of itself, for a parent to crack down on it. [/quote]
