[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Last night DS (7th grade) had a friend over after school, and he stayed for dinner. During dinner, I’m sorry, but this kid was just behaving in a way that was completely unacceptable. It wasn’t just bad table manners. He also said a lot of unkind things to me and DH, including saying my earrings were ugly and other things of that nature. [b]This isn’t the only time something like this has happened with one of DS’s friends, either. [/b]I understand that it’s a difficult age, but I would never have dreamed of behaving this way when I was in middle school. I always feel so awkward disciplining someone else’s child, though! Parents of boys, PLEASE teach your sons some GD manners, because this is crossing the line. Completely. Okay, rant over.[/quote]

Sounds like you’re raising a kid who gravitates to rude kids. What does that tell you?[/quote]

+1. This is a you problem OP. Why would your son want a kid like this to eat dinner with his parents? Something is wrong with your kid.[/quote]

Maybe the friend is lashing out in response to abuse and OP's kid is trying to provide a safe and stable environment. [/quote]

Maybe OP’s earrings are objectively ugly.

Did you buy them at a craft fair?  Was everyone involved in the making, selling, and purchasing of the earrings at least a little high?  [/quote]

Sorry to tell you but almost any top level creative work is done by people who either do or have done drugs. All of your clothes, movies, music, visual art etc done by people who get high.[/quote]
