Posts Tagged ‘Rude Kids’

i was at dinner last night with a friend and my daughter (14 months) started to act up. It wasn’t embarrassing for me but I felt bad for my friend. She said she didn’t mind but I still apologized about it.

Do u apologize (to any one) for ur child’s bad behavior in public?

Yes, if you have a small child it’s understandable for them to misbehave but it is polite to apologize for having put those around you in that situation. People will be understanding and appreciative. However, when it comes to places like movie theaters I expect parents to leave babies at home and if you bring an older child but they do start crying, to take them out of the theater immediately. Anything less is very rude.

When they get older you should teach them to apologize or at least tell them they are being rude. Kids whose parents let them get away with bad behavior don’t see it as wrong and become bratty.
