Bull. It’s fun to play with your toy how you want to. It’s fun to play catch or frisbee as a family without some neglected kid butting in because his mom didn’t bring anything for him to do and is ignoring him while she is on her phone. It’s fun to ride bikes and scooters by yourself without giving a stranger “a turn”. And some people don’t have backyards. That’s why they go to a park.

So much entitlement here.[/quote]

Entitlement = going to a public park and expecting to not have to deal with the public.

Johnny will flip if another kid touches his toy in the sandbox? That’s your opportunity to actually parent. You explain the choices to Johnny: if he doesn’t wish to share a toy, it stays home. He takes to the park only those toys that he’s OK with other kids touching/using for a few minutes. If he has no such toys, why then Johnny goes to the park without.

This is Living in a Society 101, people. It’s not hard. [/quote]
