I am singing to my computer screen now; "I hate people when they're not polite" (Psycho Killer - Talking Heads.) No, my kids don't always get it right, but I pull them up on it immediately if I feel they haven't shown good manners. <br />It matters, being polite makes the world a better place, it demonstrates respect and thoughtfulness. You did well to resist the urge to say more to that mother... <br /><br />Do you think it's all about that style of parenting that puts the kid first and central at all times? You know, that version of child-centredness which excluded anyone else's needs or feelings apart from Precious Darling's? A belief that Darling must be allowed free reign and cannot be stifled or reproved for anything because they're just, you know, expressing themselves? <br />Or is it just plain ignorance? <br />You got me on one now as well! xxxCurtisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10362184504889147455noreply@blogger.com
