I hate when people can’t control their kids. Went to the dentist the kids just climbing all over stuff, bothering people and messing with this women’s hair. Raising my son to be respectful and not be a pest to people because it takes the right person to say something to the kid and here the parents go getting mad.
I cant wait until your 6 month old turns 3. 😆🤣 Good Luck cause kids have their days and they are in a pandemic right now.
I imagine I'd be an individual that lacks empathy based on what I've read. I do not have an autistic child, and I've never encountered an autistic toddler that I know of, because as correctly pointed out, it's possible one may just not realize that the child is autistic, ok I understand.
Now, if a toddler is exhibiting behavior that is unappreciated (let's say by those who aren't directly responsible for raising them). Not just being loud and busy, running around; but they are touching people, hitting people (whether using objects or their own appendages), would a parent not remove the child from that situation? Would a parent then allow this behavior to continue? I understand children are children, absolutely! But aren't parents supposed to parent?
I've been a parent of one for 2 secs, lol, so I haven't yet experienced what is outlined above, but, if my child was hitting people, touching people who didn't want to be touched, talking to people who didn't want to be bothered, is it ok to allow that behavior to continue because "oh, he's ONLY 2, kids will be kids 😏"?
Also, would it be ok if I saw my child behaving like that, and addressed their behavior? Whether that looks like physically removing them or verbally requesting that they stop?
Well your child is only 6 months old. He’s an infant. You’re not even close to the hard part yet. I could have 100 babies but I could never have more than 2 toddlers. You’ll see, you’re in for a big surprise. And just wait until you have a second one and they feed off each other. Don’t be so quick to judge.
Don’t plan on having anymore. But thanks for your input definitely won’t be something that I allow as a parent.
Toddlers are hard to handle. They don’t sit still for nothin most the time. The parent shouldn’t have to be told to get their child out of a strangers face or touching anyone’s hair though. Especially during a pandemic.
Come back in two to three years with your bullshit 🤣
Toddlers are savages and just don’t give AF some days 🤷🏾♀️ good luck lol
Aren't they?! While looking you dead in the eyes too.
Sweet sweet angels.
I feel were you’re coming from. I know kids like that who’s parents just can’t control them and let them do what they want.
Don’t get me wrong my kids have had their melt downs and been hyper in public, but never anything like this. Once they start to climb on things I stop them, when they get into someone’s space I correct them. And they Bette remember pull someone’s hair. Kids will have their days but that’s why as a parent you correct it.
I get what others are saying about kids with autism and that’s a possibility but more times then not it’s a parent who can’t control their kid. I watch a lady ignore her kids drink juice out the carpet because she didn’t want to deal with the tantrum that came with telling him no.
@ajaecymone184, discipline is huge for me. To many parents let the kids run them.
You can’t say anything on here without people jumping on you. Obviously we all know parenting is hard. I also know people who have kids, without disabilities, who act so wild. Parents don’t have a grip on their children like they used to. My son is talked to if he even begins to act out in public. No standing on furniture. When he runs from me he is in trouble, quiet in restaurants etc. We can’t judge strangers bc yes you never know what kind of day they’re having or what their kid has to deal with, but in general, kids these days need some more consequences, spanking time out and immediate removal from restaurants and parties is not abuse.
Agreed completely and the crazy thing is that I see this way too often. Not just today at the dental office I always see kids running wild and doing whatever they want in public places while the parent sits back acting like they don’t see it or just sitting on the phone.
Agree agree agree with the both of yall @ajaecymone184
Definitely not a fair judgment, as you do not know the child personally nor the situation.
Also, you should absolutely never speak to another child as if you have some authority over them, that in itself is rude AF, and if a parent tells you not to do that, and gets super offended, they are infact in the absolute right.
Let's just hope one day you aren't the one being judged harshly based on your child's behavior.
When did I say I confronted the child? I agree completely you never confront a kid you always address any issue with a parent. However, my statement earlier I was chiming in on the fact that many people don’t care and will in fact confront your kid and hurt their feelings so with that in mind you should always keep your kid in check because some people dgaf.
@ajaecymone184 you stated it takes the right person to say something, parents shouldn't fear of others coming at them sideways because of their child's behavior, it's none of your business to begin with, so using that in the manner you are is not right. I mean if you dare so be it, but if you get told to go kick rocks and count mailboxes dont be surprised.
Speaking in general.
And sure some people are just shitty parents and dont care, but again, how do you know? Unless you know the child and parent personally you cant say for sure.
@the_pumpkin_queen, yeah I stated it takes the right person to say something because you will run into and meet the “right” person that won’t hesitate to be rude and disrespectful to your kid. This world we live in everyone is not kind and everyone is not going to be nice to your kid. Sad reality but definitely the truth so as a mom I don’t want to give that “right” person the opportunity to be rude to my kid so therefore I will not be allowing my kid to behave in such way.
And if your kid is bothering me and invading my personal space the way your child behaves is my business because it is now affecting me. It wouldn’t be my business if your kid was doing his own thing and not in my bubble.
@ajaecymone184, You are entitled to your Opinion & I’ll give you my Opinion :I’ve been a mom 24 yrs of my life my son’s are 24yrs old ,17 yrs old &3 yrs old , all have different personalities. As an adult have you ever had a bad day ? Or not in a mood to talk with other’s or your soo perfect ? An adult should not confront a child that isn’t there’s #1 ,you should go to their parent if you have an issue with a child being a child ! I don’t tell people how to raise their children . Poor children are stuck pretty much home these days due to the pandemic “so maybe yeah they have built up energy,was it your hair the little toddler touched ? Was it your Dental Office you owned ? Where you could have a say so to a point if the child was jumping on furniture and could get hurt. Please don’t have more children you sound like You Have No patience /or empathy!
First off when did I say I confronted the child? I agree completely you never confront a kid you always address any issue with a parent so I’m not sure where you got that from but I never said I confronted a child nor would I. And as a parent especially with a pandemic going on that should be more of a reason to not allow your kid to bother strangers and be in their personal space. There is still a deadly virus going around so your kid should be with you and not running around without a mask on. Either way you are entitled to your opinion I don’t have to be okay with anybody pulling my hair, hitting me with toys, asking me 30 questions and in my face “because it’s a kid and because a pandemic is going on and most kids are stuck at home” lol that’s nonsense has nothing to do with not being patient or having empathy. You’re weird but agree to disagree. By the way I’ll have as many children as I’d like who are you to tell me because we share a different opinion on a topic I shouldn’t have kids? Lol please worry about your own uterus and go on with your day. 😂
😆🤔
I am sorry but no child is going to behave all the time, you’ll see once your son is a toddler it’s going to be completely different then you’d ever expect 🤷🏻♀️
It’s soo hard. BUT that’s the time when they’re testing us. If you don’t stay on top of their behavior it just gets worse. Just because “they’re toddlers” doesn’t mean it’s okay. Kids have to be shaped all day everyday, full time job.
@alishap1212, A child having a meltdown and throwing a fit in public is totally different from a child bothering a stranger and being in their personal space. Obviously cannot control a toddler having a meltdown and a bad day but can control my kid not being in a strangers face, hitting them with toys, asking them questions and messing with their hair. I won’t have days when my son is like this “kid” because I won’t be allowing it.
@ajaecymone184, I do see where you are coming from bc if my daughter was acting in such way I would just walk away and leave however it is to say the what if’s so enjoy it as you have it easy
😂 just wait until toddlerhood. While your son is going to be “respectful” you’re going to have days where he is just like that kid. Remember that.
@littleonemorning, maybe spend less time degrading others and belittling people if you feel so strongly about compassion and empathy? This ain’t high school girl lol
@ajaecymone184, oh honey. Hearing the truth is not degrading. You could have handle this much less holier than thou. Looks like toddler years will be trying for you. Good luck and good night.
@littleonemorning, thought you were done girl you still here? Clearly it’s hard for you to hear the truth that y’all be on here doing the same shit you’re so against. Lol And please speak for yourself. Just because your kids run you don’t mean mine will run me. We’re two different people, girl your struggles won’t be mine but anyway have a great night. Hopefully you’re done this time and stop replying. 😂
Girl you just wait until your kid is older. It's easy to sit and judge when yours is just a baby and you have NO idea how hard it actually is to have a toddler.
Exactly I thought the newborn stage was hard until I entered toodlerhood
A child having a meltdown and throwing a fit in public is totally different from a child bothering a stranger and being in their personal space.

... my mom worked with all different levels of kids with autism and they would have their meltdowns but they all were taught to respect people’s personal space and to not run around wild any time she had to take them out in public .
Well there's not just autism in this world. Some kids don't have the "stranger danger" "I need to be careful" and while they also might be learning i she saw this kid and other kids one time and basing the behaviors of this one day.
Yes.. of course autistics can be taught. But it takes a while to learn things. My point is that nobody has any idea if the kid was autistic or not, and if they were what kind of services they are receiving and where they are with their therapy.
This is still a kid we're talking about. It's not like a full grown adult got in the OP's face, and was asking a million questions while running around a room.
So none of those kids ever had an off day? They were perfect in public 24/7? You can't hold every child to the same standard.
I cant wait until your 6 month old turns 3. 😆🤣 Good Luck cause kids have their days and they are in a pandemic right now.
@momof3.98, definitely won’t be the case for me especially in a situation like this because I don’t ever wanna give someone the opportunity to hurt my kids feelings or get kidnapped so they won’t be bothering strangers.
@momof3.98, well that’s you. I don’t want anymore kids so will definitely make sure I raise the only one I have right.
@momof3.98, There is technically when we’re discussing manners and basic home training skills. But yes we will see you have a good night.
Agree their is absolutely no excuses for that behavior
@sassywvgirl, exactly was the case. Thank you for understanding.
@sassywvgirl but I wasn't responding to your statement regarding the post.
I was responding to your "if my autistic niece can behave the it's easily avoidable" attitude/stance. You're holding other children to the standards of your niece, which shouldn't be done.
@beetlejuice_beetlejuice_beetlejuice, Exactly. Not all children with ASD are the same. Generalizing in such a way is not okay.
Are you absolutely sure that child wasn't special needs? For example autistic?
Just in case you're wondering what the answer is... it's No you can't be sure.
Perhaps in addition to your already planned child rearing goals, it would also behoove you to teach your children not to jump to conclusions about other people's situations and abilities. 🤷♀️
I can't tell you how many times people have found it perfectly ok to walk up to me while my autistic daughter is having a meltdown and exclaim that "what she needs a good spanking"
And then are shocked that I don't take kindly to people suggesting I physically abuse my special needs daughter.
@watz, oh no I understand completely a kid may be autistic, having a “off day” or mom can be suffering depression. I still do not feel that’s an excuse or a reason for me to sit and be okay with something I’m clearly not okay with. Lol
@ajaecymone184 no you don't understand.. but I'm not sure how I can teach you empathy. So with that realization I bid you a good evening.
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
