[quote=Anonymous]I don't have a problem with what you did, OP, though I think it would have been better to be direct and positive in your approach to the girl. Basically, the rule has to be: would you be okay with the other kid's parents hearing what you said? I assume not--there is no way ANY parent appreciates his/her child being spoken to that way by another parent--but I can still understand why you did it. I am shocked by how rude and mean kids can be. It doesn't happen often--and I am around kids a lot--but it does happen. And, in my experience, girls tend to be much savvier and thus more skilled at cruelty. That said, you have to let it go now. Absolutely nothing good can come from following up on the interaction. On the other hand, if the girl behaves cruelly toward your son again, I think it is entirely appropriate for you to talk to the parents directly.[/quote]
