Undisciplined children!

[tigwig]

Hi all, just thought I would share what happened with my day out today with you all! I was with my sister in law and her 5 and 10 year old and my 3 year old. the afternoon was lovely until there was a 'situation' with another child. It started off in the ice cream van queue! There was this child aged 3-4 in front of us and she turned round to my 3 year old and started to tell her what ice cream she should get!! My daughter was saying no to her and she wouldn't shut up, pointing in her face and bending down to her level being in her face and really annoying while her father completely ignored her. Obviously this wasn't that bad but then we sat down on the grass to eat our ice lollies next to our car and noticed the same girl sat very close by. After a few minutes she came over and started to try and play with our kids which was fair enough but when our 5 year old found a small stick and had been playing with this for ages she tried to yank it out of her hands and again dad was sat their watching but taking no notice the argument got quite nasty and we were repeatedly telling this girl to stop it and she didn't. she then yanked hold of the 5 year olds top and ripped it! Eventually she went back to her dad who was still sitting on his ar*e pretending she wasn't with him and when she kept coming back again we glared at dad and he came over to get her, I said she has ripped her top and he said sorry she is only 3 doesn't know better to which I replied my 3 year old does! He really couldn't have cared less and we though what hope does that poorchild have if thats the discipline she gets. what do you think? Wouldn't you be mortified if your child had ripped and ruined another child's clothing?

Yes I would be mortified! I stopped hanging out with a friend of mine because her child was a brat. We were at their (new) house one day and I went into the hall to find her daughter and my son, both aged about 4 at the time and the girl was drawing all over the (white) walls. I shouted at them both and her mum came through to see what was happening, I said "I jst caught T drawing on the wall" her mum asked if it was true and the demon child smirked at me and said ' no mummy it was him' (pointing at my son) I was gobsmacked, I said "I SAW you! I stood here and saw you" and she still denied it, her mum obviously thought I was lying by the look she gave me. I turned to my son and asked if he had been doing it and he looked very ashamed and said 'yes mum I did it earlier' of course I was angry and he got a row, but I have to say I was proud of him for telling the truth, he hadnt been seen, he could have denied it.

This was the last in a long line of incidents - I never went back

Knowing me I probably wouldve gone up to the father a lot sooner to get his brat away, especially after ripping the top. Being three is no excuse to get away with things like that and she be being taught as much!

I feel sorry for her when she gets to school......she will either be in trouble for being the school bully or she is going to get her backside handed to her!

I am so glad you agree with me!! Sorry for being so longwinded about it the strange thing was I did wonder if the child had a behaviour problem like ADHD until the father's attitude showed through! the child also had 2 front teeth missing which at the age of 3 I found unusual, either she has drunk or eaten so much sh*t they have rotted and fallen out or other annoyed parents have smacked her in the gob!!! (only joking) either way a 3 year old is too young to be losing baby teeth isn't she??

I would say she has probably had to have them removed by the dentist after going rotten. Normally children dont start losing their milk teeth til around the ages of 5 and 6. Or maybe another child she had peed off had given a bunch of fives? lol
