[quote=Anonymous]I think my kids might do what OP is describing and I probably wouldn't make anything of it with them. They are 4 & 7. I would say they do not politely make eye contact, say hello, and ask a question. These are sweet, gregarious kids who would be warm and friendly with people they know but not 'polite' in the way OP is describing. They'd just be themselves but not a coached version. My 7 year old is way more likely to do what OP describes but it can be touch and go depending on mood, who it is, where we are, etc. Four year old gets nervous. I model what it looks like and hope they catch on, which it seems they will given that 7 year old is probably 50/50. I dunno. I don't find it rude when kits walk past me. I would say hello to them, ask a question but generally don't let kids get under my skin.[/quote]
