[quote=Anonymous]OP, you're not crazy. But at least now you know what you're dealing with at the playground - which was the whole point of your query. Plenty of other parents think it's expected and perfectly okay to be rude, selfish and self-important and teach their children accordingly. When you encounter such people, the thing to do is smile, feel pity and move your child to the next activity. If you don't make a big deal out of it, your kid will be better prepared to navigate this bullshit that is surely in his future. Good news is that within a couple of years, he'll be old enough to learn that sharing is actually a valuable life skill. Bad news is that some parents - a lot of parents - will always be assholes and their kids will be, too. [/quote]
