But as I said I was pretty shocked. I mean, no kid that I've known in my life has ever told me that it's ok for him to make noise because "little kids do that sometimes". I mean, once the anger dissipated, I actually laughed at the fact. Awww thanks, Maktaaq :D

Truth be told, I think they must have read this (or somehow gotten the message), because this morning, the kid has been outstandingly quiet. But as I said I was pretty shocked. I mean, no kid that I’ve known in my life has ever told me that it’s ok for him to make noise because “little kids do that sometimes”. I mean, once the anger dissipated, I actually laughed at the fact.

Even when I was that age, I knew the world didn't revolve around everything I was allowed to do! I see a few of my friends who are parents allow their kids to run around like little terrors...and have lost one friendship for growling when one kid nearly put his foot in my dinner while he was rough-housing in a restaurant. There is no reason not to teach kids manners. After all it helps them in life. If you want, I could write a letter of complaint to these people. :) Grr, this makes my blood boil.
