[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So for those who do not know how to behave in public-when you go to a dinner party, at some point the kids leave the adults alone for some adult convo. If your kid has not been exposed to this very normal social dynamic, you have likely offended people in the past. This is like making plans with a girlfriend to take your kids out together and showing up with your husband and kids. It’s not the end of the world, but it goes against others’ expectations for the event and can come off as rude. The kid hangs a little and then makes herself scarce. This is called social graces or manners. No one is saying your kid is not welcome, but the kid need not spend 100 percent of the event with the adults. Catch a clue. [/quote] You’re correct, but the howls of overly enmeshed and permissive parents will now commence.[/quote]
