[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you agree that battling over toys is normal and generally not to be interfered with. Obviously you think hitting is not okay, and most of us agree. Yelling is not as clear-cut, and perhaps that father was picking his battles with his child as well.

You sound like you don't get to the playground very often if this was a Dear Diary moment for you.[/quote]

OP here. Actually, I don't bring my toddler to the playground very often. So what you're saying is that these things happen all the time and therefore, does not warrant parental intervention? Interesting. I will remember that going forward.

I'm just saying you see all types at the playground; kids that play nicely and kids that don't. You embrace the former and try to avoid the latter, but it's not perfect when you're in a public space. A little tolerance goes a long way. Don't forget; your child HIT another kid at the playground. Yes, you corrected and removed him, but that still sucks for the other kid. [/quote]
