[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'd like to think I'd step in but once when one of my kids was 18 months I had her in the community baby pool. They called for adult swim and four kids came barreling into the baby pool and one jumped right onto my toddler, knocking her down. These kids were between 6-8 and no adults followed them. I told the one who knocked into her to watch it and that if she couldn't be careful she should stay out of the baby pool.

The mom eventually got word and followed me out to the parking lot trying to shame me. She later got my email from someone she saw me chatting with that she also happened to know. She sent me this crazy email accusing me of giving nasty looks to one of her other kids and making threats about ruining my reputation and getting me kicked out of the pool.

So now I mostly just observe because I don't want to deal with any psycho parents. [/quote]

The apple apparently didn't fall far from the tree in that case. I would have firmly spoken right back at the mom in the parking lot about personal property and if she continued the threats would have reported her immediately. She probably already has a reputation.

Also, PSA, don't give people other people's email addresses. They are not yours to give. [/quote]
