[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If kids go into the fridge or pantry without asking the first time I tell them "In this house, guests need to ask an adult who lives here if they want something to eat or drink."

The second time I tell them "Remember what I said about asking if you want something? If you continue to help yourself you won't be invited back."

If they do it again they're never welcome back. My kids know they have "school friends" who they can enjoy playing with at school but aren't welcome at our house because they won't follow rules. Thems the breaks. Actions have consequences. [/quote]

Yikes. You sound very scary and controlling. Sure it’s impolite for a child to start rooting around your kitchen, but I would bet a lot that they’re scared to ask your permission since you sound very cold and rigid. Maybe they thought it was rude to interrupt whatever you were doing or maybe they were starving but you didn’t offer them anything. They were looking for goldfish, not vaping in your bathroom for goodness sake. [/quote]

Found the entitled parent! [/quote]

It’s just downright rude to go to someone’s house and root around for anything, let alone goldfish. It is not your house. Period.

Do you teach your kids that? If you are hungry, root around someone’s house for food?  But the kids is too scared to ask. Really?  You got to be kidding. Entitlement for sure. [/quote]

Wow!  I keep kid friendly snacks on the low shelf of my pantry and tell the kids to help themselves.  Only rule is it stays in the kitchen or on the deck.  Maybe kids are getting conflicting messages.  I like it when others are comfortable in my home.[/quote]
