[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I guess I’m in the minority. Kids this age say stupid stuff. When my kids make comments like this, I just ignore because I know it’s developmentally appropriate. Plus, my children are allowed to think things are silly, or not fun. I do not expect them to just comply because an adult is telling them to do something.[/quote] That’s fine, kids should question authority. But if they can’t suck it up & play along they shouldn’t play team sports. [/quote] This kid didn't "question authority". He said something cruel about another child. Yes, he can think it's silly and not fun. He can say "I'd rather not play" and sit out. But when you're frustrated you don't get to turn your anger on other children. This is how bullies are raised.
