[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP: you might be able to minimize such thoughtless comments if you stop opening up the conversation to begin with. [b]Why lament the struggles your child is having to people on the playground? [/b]I bet the woman was caught off guard and didn't know what to say. Would it have been better if she had simply said " I'm sorry?". Lots of parents I know hate it when people say that...they don't want pity.[/quote] I didn't. If you read my posts, you would see that I was lamenting to a co-worker (and casual friend) about the playground. It can be awkward when a mom who clearly has angst spills it to perfect strangers, and they get a bit more leeway (but still not off the hook entirely for some of these atrocious comments), but I didn't do that.
