[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You’re fine.

Also 14 year olds are weirdos who literally don’t want the other kids to even know they have parents, so she’ll be hissing at you about how embarrassing you are for a year or two more. Was discussing this with my husband today as our youngest is 14 and in this phase. His 16 year old brother is finally out of it.[/quote]

+1 on this.  I said hello and had a brief chat with a former neighbor girl that i used to see daily, and my 13-year old said it was SO WEIRD and EMBARASSING that I was speaking to them. 
I think what you did was not only fine, it was totally appropriate.  If my kids expected me to just drop $100 because they were bored, I'd tell them to think again.  And we have plenty of money.  If they wanted to go for ice cream and you said "we can't afford that" -- that might be embarrassing. [/quote]
I’m a teacher and my kid thinks it’s so embarrassing if I say hi to my students when I see them in public. I’m talking about 6/7 year olds 😀[/quote]
