[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree with your DH. I would have a hard time holding my tongue. At the very least i would totally ignore and I would certainly give them the stink eye. They know full well what they are doing. Sorry you and your DC have to deal with this.[/quote] +1. I'm a rarity in my DC neighborhood./ demographic. I am unpleasant and scolding to other people's kids when they're bad. I don't pretend that all children up to the age of 16 have innocent intentions and just therefore need sweet supportive morally relative gobbledygook words. [/quote] I'm with you. My kid is only 5 and knows better. He knows that he is expected to be polite. We were recently at our neighborhood pool and there was a teen with an obvious developmental disability who was making loud, Tourette's like noises. My son came to me and said why is that kid making that noise? And I said his brain is a little different than yours and he can't control it anymore than you can control that you have brown eyes, and he seems like a nice boy just like you. He shrugged, accepted that, ran off and continued to play. If he ever said something rude out loud or made fun of that kid - or anybody - he knows he would have hell to pay from mama. Some kids are just brats whose parents haven't taught them how to be compassionate and respectful. I'm sorry, OP. If you were at my pool I'd make it a point to say hello to you and your daughter.
