[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid is 4 and very shy. She often whispers to adults she doesn’t know. I’m sure quite a few adults didn’t hear her say thank you last night. Some kids are shy, some are too excited/forget, some might just be rude. Whatever. [/quote] She can still say thank you. Stop making excuses because you are a crap parent.[/quote] DP but this child is FOUR. Are you a parent? Have you ever had a 4 yo? My kid is unfailingly polite now as a 6 yr old but at 4 she could barely make eye contact and IIRC, at a number of houses on that Halloween, she simply hid behind us while we collected candy on her behalf. We would say thank you, but it was totally unreasonable for anyone involved to expect her to say thank you at that age. Growing up is a process. Stop expecting kids to go from babies to fully formed and perfect adults. [/quote]
