[quote=Anonymous]I’ve said things like “Please step back, we need space and quiet.” I have also asked if I can help, since many times parents have bags, other kids etc that can be gathered and carried to wherever they are trying to regroup. I will never forget the amazing woman in a full burka at Tysons who stopped when my 3yo son was having a full-on meltdown because he had a bloody nose for the first time. I also had my 5yo daughter with me and just a small bag since we weren’t going to be there long. I was on the floor with him trying to handle that situation while keeping my daughter by me but out of the way. The woman sent her husband to help by handing me tissues. But then she realized he didn’t know what to do. So she came over and spoke quietly to my daughter while handing me wet wipes and tissue from her own diaper bag. She never spoke to me, but I will never forget her kindness. [/quote]
