[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh, and generally people who let their child spoil an outing for others. I think it sends totally the wrong message. People who are "gentle parenting" for so long that we all miss the bus. People who are unwilling to physically remove a child who is hitting other children. People who don't hold their child accountable for commitments and let them cancel because they just aren't feeling like a playdate they previously agreed to. Things like that teach the child that bad behaviors are acceptable and that it's other people's burden to accommodate. It's not good for the kid, and it makes me cringe to see it. And it ruins the playdate, so why even bother?[/quote]

Yes - this.  I'll add people who let their kid run and climb around noisily in the front of church or stand up in front of seated people at a concert or talk through a show or movie.  If your kid can't be in those settings without ruining them for other people, either don't put yourselves in that situation choose a spot where you can escape quickly if your kid gets disruptive.  I don't have a lot of parenting triggers but this is a huge one for me.  [/quote]

I second this. [/quote]
