omg my neighbours across the roads kid has screamed for about half an hour for her mummy.... she's in the garden. I'm…

Well that's it I just felt bad for the little girl. She was happy to go around herself for a little while but then obviously got upset she couldn't see her Mum (or whomever it was). I let Morgan go off by himself but I walk around so I can still see where he is. He's still young & 1. I'd wanna make sure he's playing nicely or 2. Be close of another child wasn't being nice lol

aww it's upsetting isn't it @sara-lou. I know everyone's parenting style is different but it still doesn't stop you feeling for the child xx

I was at a soft play last week @mich77 & I kept seeing a little girl playing by herself. Over 1 but under 2 I'd say. I kept looking out for her parent or whoever she was there with & I couldn't make it out. Then bit later she was standing crying for ages & again I tried seeing who was with her to get their attention. I even walked around the front to the seats. Eventually someone got up & walked over but she'd been by herself for at least 30mins... I know Mum's need a break sometimes but I thought it was a long time to leave your toddler by themselves...

sounds about 3

Thats awful how old?
