A lady was mean to my 4 year old today..

[Boxley]

Of course the old woman was totally at fault. When she saw that the kid needed entertaining, she should've made him some balloon animals pronto! What?!? No balloons on hand? Then she should've made a sock puppet or support hose puppet, whatever is more handy.

And in case it's not totally clear, I'm not attacking the OP. I'm just poking fun in everyone's general direction. Hey, it's better than farting or screeching in your direction!

What about a rock opera featuring Mr. Pepper and Miss. Salt?

OMLORD, YOU ARE GOING THE TROLL ROUTE NOW? PLEASE! My username was 5 lil twinkers. You can look up both profiles and compare pics of my kids if you want. Same person I assure you.

I felt attacked and upset that day of my thread, today I feel like defending myself and others on here who feel bullied. I feel much better thank you....Like I said, there is a way to disagree with someone and there is being mean. Take another look. I might be taking something personally, but obviously Im not the only one from what I see on here. As far as Im concerned I have said what I feel. If you want to comment any further pm me.

You're not talking to me, and I have not posted on this thread until now, but I will say this:

It's clear that you are overreacting, and if you have repeated incidences where people in public say things to your children, or the way you parent, you might want to think about that and ask yourself why that is.

Okay, I'm sorry. It just struck me as strange that someone who was claiming her feelings were hurt kept encouraging people to continue to post and seemed disappointed when they didn't. And since I thought I remembered it was against the Disboards rules to have multiple accounts, I thought perhaps this user name was a different person entirely. I didn't remember the OP's name on the other thread - I thought it had something to do with Twinkies. If you say that's you, then I believe you.



As for the OP, I'm afraid we probably scared her off. Sorry, OP!

I teach my children when they want to spark up a conversation with someone, to ask their name. The older woman in the OP was very rude and I would have told her so.

Not everyone wants to talk to your snowflake. Whatever happened to "don't talk to strangers"? You are teaching your child in interact with people they don't know.

Too controversial...interracial dating. I kid, people, get your finger off the report button!

I can understand where she is coming from. This board is know for throwing things back in people faces. It happens a lot.

Is everyone familiar with how the tables in most McDonald's are arranged? They are usually in rows and quite close together. It would be easy for a child to reach over to the next table and poke someone's purse.

Anyway, we don't know why the lady sat there. Maybe the other tables were full? The OP seems to have vanished so we may never know.

My point exactly....I have seen many times some woman sets her purse on the table and the handle falls into our space.
Were the tables split into small tables or 1 long table?

clovergirl you don't really want to leave us do you? I can tell because you've given a dramatic sign off and flounced off the Dis at least two times in this thread alone...yet you still keeping showing up.

hmm...a dating reality show with french fries? "Flavor of Fries"

 

[eeyore kelly]

The woman had every right to sit where ever she wanted.

And not have her things touched, or have to entertain someone else's child.

I would have either ignored the child, moved my purse or possibly moved my location while eye rolling and sighing aggravatedly.

I am not old and I am healthy. I can do that. Could this "old woman." Who knows?

I nor anyone else should have to entertain your little snowflake.

and so did the kid and his mom, I believe they were there first. If I didn't want to sit by someone, I wouldn't sit by them. Little kids don't sit still and they talk to people. That is a kid for craps sake. If you know you don't like kids, DON'T SIT BY THEM...HE was there first!!

We can start a monopoly of food related shows! We'll be rich!

I was in Target the other day and had the pleasure of listening to a screeching child that was being ignored by his mother. I though dayum! Is no place sacred?

What difference does it make? See below..

Since when is a total stranger responsible for parenting a child they have never seen before? It was up to mom to gain control of the situation - not the "mean, old lady"..

I have absolutely NO problems with my parenting. My kids think I am the best mom there is. I have only gotten compliments on my children and myself. Just got one at a restaurant on Friday night. Not all old ladies are old biddys!

I do have to be honest though, I get no support from my dh and that is why being a sahm, I turned to a message board for support. I get ridicule from him actually.

I did open another account. and about the op, I hope she didn't feel attacked.

What about the "old lady's" right to not have her stuff touched? I guess it doesn't matter because she's not a precious snowflake.
