It seems like te stupidest thing to me. Why are you going to attack someone who has politely asked you and/or your child to behave themselves or at least stop actively doing something harmful
Why the hell would they disincentivize their kids when someone has just given them an out to have a teachable moment and possibly nudge their kid behave better and possibly for the parent?
This is exactly my point. The stranger is giving a lifeline for a change. They could stand aside and shut their piehole and let the stranger in the right correct and say what needed to be said and let them hear what they need to hear.
I wasnt and will never be a monster to the kids in so saying wbat they need to know but she wont even allow that natural and healthy process to occur undisturbed, shes tryinv to get them sucked back into behaving shittily as her indirect way of causing discomfort to me even tho i throw all that discomfort right back in her face (like a dog who pisses on the rug) when i inevitably have to scold her for interrupting the natural things that have to happen when there is an ongoing violation like that she is clearly throwing lighter fuel all over
