[quote=Anonymous]Another SN mom here.

If your kids are blatantly staring, please don't walk away from me and my child and call your kids, call them over and over and wait for them to follow while they stand there and gape at us.  It doesn't work.  You are hiding your head in the sand and ignoring reality.  This happened twice at the pool Sunday.  Actually, it happens every single time we go to the pool.

The net effect is that I'm left with your gaping kids.  I'm left essentially to parent them, while you have walked away and are pretending (1) I don't exist; (2) my daughter doesn't exist; (3) you can walk away from an adult without acknowledging her friendly smile (me), which is insanely hurtful, and your children, when I then say hello, turn their backs on us and run away finally, because of course they have seen you model the same unfriendly and ignoring behavior.

Why do moms do this?  Why can't you say to your child "Say hello Larla!"  And say to me "Have a great time at the pool, we are headed home for lunch."

What is WRONG with YOU?  [/quote]
