It's actually a little insensitive of the greeter to intrude on someone when they're upset, unless there is enough time to express support.

Some of the responses on here are insane. No, a child who is upset is not rude for failing to respond to a greeting. Neither is an adult.

They don't turn toward you and keep walking without acknowledging you, upset. Do you 1. think the kid is a horrendous brat 2. are a little offended but sort of get it 3. not sweat it, kid is upset.


OP is a 3 who is too immature to have an adult conversation with a 1.

If it's anything but 3, then you need to work on adulting.
