[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What exactly do you expect them to do for you when your toddler is having a tantrum?[/quote] Exactly what they do when we’re in the US: try to distract her with something, just ask “can I help?” [b]They usually at least try to help.[/b][/quote] I suggest that your annoyance with them is getting across to them and rather than make it worse, they are stepping back. Whenever I sense I am getting on someone's nerves, I usually make myself scarce or become try to stay out of their way. [/quote] Maybe. They haven’t helped at all the whole trip, though. It isn’t like there was a gradual decline in the amount of assistance.[/quote]
