[quote=Anonymous]From your language I get the impression the child is not your (biological) grandchild. If there is a slight awkwardness or tension there, I would not bat an eye at the lack of hug. I probably would also chalk up the rude backtalk to 11 year olds being snotty - however as a parent I would never have tolerated that in my kids! I would have expected the father to speak up right away in a tactful way (“Umm Johnny, please use your manners. Mary went out of her way to host us these last few days and you should be respectful”) and then chewed him out on the way home for his crappy attitude!![/quote]
