[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Y’all are crazy. What’s wrong with being part of this kid’s village? Kids today text - they don’t drop by the house and sit at your kitchen table anymore. As long as your conversations are things you’d share publicly then why wouldn’t you reply to these things? Kids need multiple people invested in them. They see you as a good and safe person. Be that person. All you other posters are so afraid you are making the world so small for your kids. [/quote] You do you but you should not keep your kid in the dark that most adults he doesn’t know well would think this is weird and rude. [/quote] Plus 1[/quote] Why is it rude for a kid to connect with a parent he/she interacts with? When I was growing up I’d chat with parents I encountered and tell about things I was doing or had found. If my friend wasn’t home when I went to their house (yeah we’d just drop by friend’s houses) I’d sit and talk at the table with the mom or with the dad if the kid was on their way home. This was normal community stuff. Everyone bemoans how we don’t have community anymore. People won’t help people anymore. This kind of nonsense is why. If you want there to be a community for you and for your family you have to be a part of it. You have to do your part. [/quote]
