Topic: some kids ..just a little vent Posted: 27 November 2008 at 3:47pm |

Just a little vent ....
I just picked C up from school ,as usual she wanted to have a play in the playground ,that was fine .
While I was there, another little boy , a brother to one of the students , was being a right little sh*t .
In the sandpit he was throwing sand at the girls , snatching toys and chasing them out of it .
Then I saw him snatch a toy off a little asian girl , and pull her hair and push her, I looked around for another adult that might be his parent and the only ones I could see were 2 women chatting away oblivious on the other side of the playground .
So I told him off, no one else was going to do it , and he was at least 4, so well and truly old enough to know better .
THEN , after a while mother decides to get off her a** and comes over, where he points to me and tells his mother I told him off , so she says "excuse me , how dare you tell my child off ?"
and I looked at her cooly , in my Scarlett Ohara fashion (i have perfected it over the years ) and said
"I dared tell your child off, because while you were over there gasbagging ,your child was bullying all the kids in this playground , and making them cry , if you are going to turn a blind eye to it, thats your business , I wont ..come on Caitlyn " and putting my face in the air I turned and went .
She may have her reasons and excuses, not my problem , he was being a little sh*t and deserved to be told off .
And then , to make a fun afternoon funner, my daughter says to me "mum, in the olden days , when you were a child, did they have christmas ?"
tho , if im from the "olden days' that must make some of you from the prehistoric times ....

btw , the Scarlett Ohara look ,is where you raise one eyebrow in a withering haughty ,you are beneath me , expression .
Works only if you can raise each eyebrow separately
Also tends to only work if you have eyebrows

Go you!
I mean, fair enough we all get caught up sometimes and might not notice our child getting up to mischief and fair enough, we are all defensive of our babies and hate to hear that anyone has upset them, but she sounds pretty special!

Sounds like he needed a telling off so good for you!
I did the same a few weeks back but without your grace and style... a girl rather a lot bigger than Belle hurt her. I comforted her but didnt say anything figuring maybe it was an accident. Took Belle to play somewhere else where she'd be out of the way of the bigger kids and the same girl comes running over and jumps onto the toy straight onto Belle's fingers. I got such a fright I yelled at her and her parents sitting a few metres away didnt even bother to get up and see what was happening.
Next time I hope I'll follow your lead and do it a lot more gracefully

I'm one of the prehistorics Mums  My daughter asked if everything was black and white when I was little as the photos were hehe
(there were actually colour photos way back then but these were taken professionally in B+W)
Anyway that was off topic ....just wanted to say good on you.
I wish I was that brave and quick with my responses and I so wish I could do the Scarlet O'Hara look.

McKayla is actually the one these days going over to the "bully" kids and telling them: "Stop it that is not very nice. No no no not at all."
Good on you for telling him off.

Good on you Kelly. I had to tell a little girl off for bullying Michaela in the playground a couple of months ago. Her parents were sitting a metre away with their back to her and although they heard me tell her off they didn't do anything - that makes me angry too.
