[quote=Anonymous]If the child is actually conversing, not interrupting, I don't see how you have any grounds to correct them. Sure you can be rude yourself and not respond to the child, but this is a part of growing up and learning the skills for conversation. My guess is the child is actually the oldest in the group and doesn't want to play with the younger kids, so they are gravitating to the adults. Now, if the child is interrupting the conversation, I would politely say, "please remember to speak when the other person finishes, so we aren't talking over each other!" this actually helps them learn, not just dismisses the fact that they want to talk to you.
