[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][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]

What whiner? A crazy woman demanded a ball, made a scene, grabbed the dad, and he said “here ya go!” And took it out of his kid’s glove. Taught his kid that it wasn’t worth it. Meanwhile Marlines and Phillies management took it upon themselves to reward the family. Nobody asked them to do that and it certainly wasn’t expected. But look how doing the right thing paid off.

In practice, if you give in to a bad actor, someone else isn't likely to come along fix it for you. You shouldn't give in to bullies in the first place.[/quote]

Are you slow? Once again, the bully didn’t win. This is how you outplay a bully. [/quote]

If you play out a similar scenario 100 times, the bully wins in 95 of them. These situations usually aren't caught on TV.[/quote]
