[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If she's being polite, then there is nothing you can do about it.  A lot of "high-energy" kids are, or are seen as, poorly behaved--playing too rough, not listening, etc.  And if a parent has a chiller kid, they are just not used to dealing with it in their home.  And--and I'm not saying this is you--some parents of high-energy kids aren't on top of things.  It's possible that she's correcting your kid more often because your kid needs more correction.  You say that she's being polite and not being mean or unkind.  So you work on teaching your kid to behave appropriately, and you accept that not everyone will like your kid--which, frankly, every parent has to accept.[/quote]

Agree 100%. Parents, especially moms, can think their precious little one can do no wrong. “High energy” is one thing, but undisciplined, rude, running wild young kids is another thing entirely. Too often moms fail to intervene strongly to correct behavior. If your son is a problem behavior wise, of course she’s not thrilled to have him behaving badly and not listening to corrections. Have this mental picture of you sitting there chatting and ignoring his bad behavior, if that’s the case I sure wouldn’t blame her for not being pleased to have you all visit. Better to have a reality check now while he’s still young - more and more people won’t like him as he gets bigger. Your job is to prepare him for success socially and educationally - not to be his friend. He won’t do well without some more structure and behavioral limits now. [/quote]
