[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why did Dad give the ball to her?[/quote]
To diffuse the situation. He didn’t want to fight over it. He just wanted his family left alone.[/quote]

What would she have done? He should have just took it and left.[/quote]

Why? He stayed and his patience and de-escalation skills paid off for his kid. I’m pretty sure his kids learned that way the right and wrong thing to do. [/quote]

Reward the whiner and hope someone else makes it right? I'm not sure that's a good lesson.[/quote]
Right things to do:

-Prioritize your family’s safety

-Choose your battles based on what’s really important to you

-De-escalate encounter with confrontational stranger

-Not make physical contact with person who is looking for a fight

-Not not act like a spoiled child

Wrong things to do:

-Grab stranger’s arm

-Get up in multiple strangers’ faces and scream over something that’s not even important

-Gratefully accept ball taken away from child [/quote]
