[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Okay, example from today. The tone and attitude was part of it so I hope it makes sense. A child DC's age comes up to us poolside, very abruptly. Child: "Is she sleeping?" Me: [surprised] No, she's not sleeping. [she was very obviously not sleeping] Child: Then why are you rocking her? Child then runs away, joins friends, giggles. [/quote] I think it's okay to call kids out on this type of behavior. If she came by again, I'd say: "I noticed that you ran away and giggled with your friends after asking me a question about my daughter. That was rude. If you have a question, then ask in a polite way. If I can answer it, then I will. I know you want to be treated respectfully and so does my family." --Mom of a 7 & 11 year old[/quote]
