Would you consider this rude ?

Huh ? Wow ok, these are our neighbors. We have known the grandparents for well over a year. We are on very friendly terms. DH & I are both fully bilingual. DH was not knocking on anyone's door, it was DS. DH was in the front yard where my DS & the little girl were originally playing with grandma. She is 3 & he is 6 & does know some spanish words, not having a conversation just playing with trucks & barbies. They have played before so they are not strangers.

Grandparents are great & I never said they were rude. The grandma invited DS over & I am assuming did not tell her daughter & that is why she didn't open the door. That was my question. Geez, first I get slammed on how I write my post & now I'm crazy too ?

See I can use paragraphs & no I am not crazy.

Yes, but you do not know the mother, right? I think you are missing that part of the equation.

If your DS wants to play with the girl and the mother is home you need to talk to her. Since you are bilingual this should not be an obstacle.

Don't rely on the grandma for the rules about her granddaughter when mom is home. That would bug anyone, of any language.

I am sure it will all be fine!

Sorry but I don't see what using paragraphs has anything to do with my post. I'm typing informally & I tend to ramble. Sorry if that offends you. Yes, I do worry because 1- I am a worrier & 2 - I wanted some ideas/suggestions/input from my fellow disers. What's wrong with that ?

Nothing is wrong with that.

The poster who wrote this to you was way out of line on another thread today and another poster wrote that he was going to report him immediately to a moderator and asked him to quit posting. I suspect he has been removed since his original posting to you has been removed from this thread.

That's rude, for sure.

Maybe it was rude, maybe not.

Too many maybes to make a judgement... I'd say just continued to be a friednly neighbor and cut the woman some slack...if she just moved in with her mother because of marital trouble she may have a lot on her plate.

It sounds like the Grandma was trying to make a point to you by having your son come back out and ask for permisison. Why wouldn't she have just said "Your son is playing with my granddaughter in our house. Is that okay?" I think she was trying to make the point of "Look, your son just walked right into our house."

You might want to tell your son that he should knock on a door and wait to see if someone answers. He should NOT have tried the doorknob.
