[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My question is: why are some people so ageist? OP this is about your mother. Not about legions of older adults. Get a clue. Also, it's "older adults" not "elderly people." Finally, you are just like your mom. You want her to have compassion, yet you have none for her. [/quote] Your mom isn’t exactly wrong. This kid had an huge, violent loud meltdown because she was trying to make nice small chat with him. That can be off putting for anyone. [b]At least now she knows to not try to speak to little kids in any capacity like she used to[/b]. Win-win. [/quote] Incredibly sad if this is the takeaway from this situation.[/quote]
