Besides your kids will learn not everyone is as interested in them as their parents and will hopefully learn to leave the aunts & uncles alone. Yes, kids need to learn not everyone is fascinated by them. But they also need to learn that part of being social adults is making polite conversation even with people you don't care for. That you can't sit around and freeze out people and act like elitist snobs.[/quote] No they are kids. They are your kids. If other adults do not want to talk them, fine. The kids will figure it out and leave them alone. The op should have learned the same a while ago, but did not. Why waste your time worrying about people who do not want to be around you? There is nothing you can do so move on and do not worry about. Life is too short.[/quote]
