Too many parents are letting children get away with awful behavior.Stephanie Friezehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04317117338063884811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8946203290826130992.post-7057591938444894382013-03-27T11:09:46.673-07:002013-03-27T11:09:46.673-07:00Hurrah for you!

I'm so glad your story had a happy ending. I'm afraid Sydney's did not. After reading her blog about the children and the flowers I was ready to blow. How can that mother call herself a mother and allow such behavior?Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16104209407172978249noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8946203290826130992.post-17019851398315982272013-03-27T05:30:16.168-07:002013-03-27T05:30:16.168-07:00I came close to just going home mad which would ha...I came close to just going home mad which would have meant an extra stop at a time of day that I am getting tired. I'm sure that partially accounts for my intolerance of the girl's rudeness/idiocy. Lorrene, you should read Sydney of Oysterville's blog about children running around the village pulling up daffodils, but make sure your BP is low. It made mine boil.<br />http://sydneyofoysterville.com/2013/eighty-six-daffodils-down/<br />Stephanie Friezehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04317117338063884811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8946203290826130992.post-71324157870726705472013-03-26T08:03:06.326-07:002013-03-26T08:03:06.326-07:00I love it that you made the effort to talk to some...I love it that you made the effort to talk to someone in charge... someone who might make a difference in the girl's attitude. I think most adults are reluctant to do that (to take complaints to the right place) and so we become part of the problem. When we say "it takes a village" this is what we mean... Taking responsibility is hard for all of us. Good for you, Stephanie!ORFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726791994154640582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8946203290826130992.post-20123136836358830022013-03-25T19:19:56.713-07:002013-03-25T19:19:56.713-07:00Good for you.
