[quote=Anonymous] I've never ever heard anybody implement a "one at a time " rule on the wobbly bridge. If the older kids was purposefully shaking the bridge with the intention of knocking your kid off, I would have said "hey stop, he's just little, let him cross." But if the other child was just crossing normally, even running, that's his right. The slide: older kid should wait. He might not know he's supposed to wait, so a very friendly "could you wait until she's down please?" Is all that's necessary. And if your kid is taking a really long time, pick her up and move her out of the way. Ultimately, you need to have common courtesy for the kids around you, which might mean moving your 16mo out of the way. Or it could mean politely asking other kids to wait their turn. [/quote]
