[quote=Anonymous]It sounds rude- I have a younger (tween) with ADHD who is challenging to say the least. It's really important to set boundaries in advance when kids are prone to acting up. My son knows (we even joke about it) that if his school ever calls me about his behavior, it better be to tell me he's won a trophy. Expectations are really a parent's job- but it sounds like your sister doesn't set advance expectations then becomes defensive over her DD's rudeness. Laughing hysterically at someone who is missing something sentimental and who has poor vision would resulted in an apology from my son and a loss of a valuable privilege. It's a lack of empathy and courtesy- which is normal, but never acceptable, in children and teens. I put up with a lot things at home, because there are a lot of things that are more difficult for my DS to control with his ADHD, but being a bully and being rude to adults outside of our home- nope.
