[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]good for you, maybe your sharing, caring and kind child will grow up to be president, mine will grow up to be the bully. Get real. You are the hover. BOO HOO[/quote] Why wouldn't your child grow up to be a bully? Are you teaching your child empathy, and compassion, or just "mine, mine mine"? [/quote] I am teaching my child life. She is not allowed to take others toys away, doesn't have a tantrum, never has had one for that matter, because she is taught that she can not have what someone else has. Let me re answer the original question. Mom's that think it is okay for my child to cry so that theirs doesn't. [/quote] Well said. I think consideration goes both ways. I had someone that interrupted me in the middle of a conversation in a parking lot with a friend on the way to the store to “ask” me if I would mind bringing her cart up to the front of the store… as if it was a foregone conclusion because she asked, therefore I must do. I think I was stunned for a moment trying to understand if there was some physical impairment why she wasn’t capable of bringing her own cart up to the front and then looked to make sure I wasn’t wearing anything that made me look like I worked for the store. I am very non-confrontational but I was darned if I was going to bring her cart up to the store so I just sort of said, sorry we are in a hurry. And don’t you know she tried to yell at me and get angry and then said well since I have kids in the car blah blah blah. Hello – we are in front of a baby store – how do you know I’m not pregnant. And if you approached me in a reasonable manner – apologetic, sorry to interrupt me, okay if you don’t have time to do it but would you mind – I would have brought the cart up. So though I think while the whole sharing post came off to one extreme – I understand the annoyance with the whole entitlement thing behind it. Real world – no one owes you anything. Be prepared to find another toy to play with or bring your own cart to the front of the store.[/quote]
