[quote=Anonymous]I'm still with OP that if a three year old is going to "make it" the 18 months old's problem by yelling at the 18 month old for looking at his toy, then the three year old has to leave the toy at home.  The three year old isn't obligated to share. But they are obligated to treat others with kindness and not be rude. If the Frisbee causes the three year old to be rude, then the Frisbee stays home. OP wasn't looking for them to all play Frisbee together. She was looking to not have her kid yelled at for doing normal 18  month old behavior. The park is a public place that everyone should be able to use equally. it sucks when your ability to enjoy the park is impeded by a three year old whose yelling forces mom to have to be hyper vigilent lest her 18 month old even look in the wrong direction.

There would have been no problem if, when the Frisbee landed in the 18 month old's zone of play, the 3-year old (like many 3 year olds) simply let the toddler hand the Frisbee back to the 3 year old instead of yelling about it.[/quote]
