Puzzled
Remember this lady.
I want to keep going to the playgroup, but I am getting frustrated with other moms abilities to watch their kids, or lack there of.
One child at the play group was putting hula hoops around other kids necks and pulling them over. He is like five, everyone else is two-ish.
What do I do about this? What if the mom’s are not punishing their kids? Do I just give up and stop going? What do you guys do when people are mean to your kids? It is so frustrating to me. Can I tell other peoples kids what to do?
Also, I put Gentry in the daycare at my gym for an hour this morning while I worked out. He came back with an extension to his black eye. It now extends down his cheek and is really blue. Several people asked me what is wrong with his face today. I did not beat him. I wouldn’t. Do I let the gym know that my son came back with a huge bruise on his face today or is that just part of leaving kids in daycare?

I would say that you can definately tell other people’s children what to do if it is affecting/harming your child. Other than that, it’s kind of a gray area. Micaela takes gymnastics, and one of the other student’s older brother was bullying Micaela the other day. I just flat out told him that Micaela doesn’t like that and that I don’t like that and next time I would tell his mother. Which I shouldn’t have to do because she was there, just not watching him.
