So Im sure some of you have read what I wrote on my FB Status but Im still annoyed by it. We live in a huge complex that has 2 playgrounds and I took Cambria over to play in one of them today. She loves the slides and just running. Well There were 2 kid's there maybe 4 and 6? Both boy's and they were SO RUDE!!! They were of Middle Eastern decent and I dont think spoke english. The Little boy was Horiable! He would run up to her face and growl at her and follow her everywhere she would go. Cambria's Very friendly and LOVES being around other kid's But she's VERY sensitive. Noises, sound's, quick movements things like that freak her out. So she would think he was funny from afar and then when he'd come up to her face she'd freak out. Then He tryed to spit in her face and Luckily It landed by her feet! Not to mention she was sitting at the top of the slide and he ran up the stairs and pushed her down. I was SOOOO mad! I told him " Go get your mommy, I want to talk to her". but of course they didn't. The other kid did nothing! Who raises their kid's like this? How embarrassing! Im glad the mom didn't come out I probably would have ripped her a new one!!!!

oh my gosh. That's horrible. I hate hate hate when kids are rude and pick on others. It really breaks my heart.

I can't believe how people can allow that to happen, or not be around. I really hate when people dump their kids off at a park/play area and not care/pay attention!!

There's a park I used to loove going to, but now I hate it because there are so many young kids, Elsa's age, and even younger, with NO parental supervision, and they are terrible! I normally don't start anything with the parents, but I will say LOUDLY, "We are leaving Elsa, at least you know it is not nice to act like that, and you are good at following rules, those kids are being BAAD!" It really annoys me because they ruin it for those of us who actually care enough to watch our kids! If you don't have the time to actually play and teach your kids, shouldn't have them! is how I feel. Poor Cambria.

Poor Cambria! I hate how parents don't watch their kids. I've never met a 4 or 6 year old mature enough to be at a park alone.

[♥Ashley♥]

OMG are you kidding me? I mean im not surprised because some parents let their kids do whatever they want, but GEEZ! Poor Cambria! I wish the mom would have come outside so you could have told her all that her kids were doing, but the fact that the kids even think its okay to do that crap obviously leads me to believe the mom would not have even cared! Thats annoying, too, that its in your neighborhood, so its not like you'll never have to deal with those little brats again!

where are these parents?!!!!

[~*sierra*~]

i would have yelled at them. if their mother wasn't there to discipline them then i guess she is ok with other people doing it for her!

[LadyGamer]

I have walked children home from around our apartment building to "talk" to their parents. Our neighbors let their kids play in the HALLWAY, knocking and banging on other peoples doors and shoving things through mailslots. I get PISSED.

[~*Bethy*~]

As I said on your FB status - we have hispanic kids here who just trash the place. their parents are always inside, and they have NO RESPECT for ANYONE's things that get left outside. I had Ian out in the backyard on sunday, and the little boy who lives next to us, came out and proceeded to shove Ian off his scooter Um HELLO!? His mom did NOTHING! I knew his name so I yelled at him - did I mention Ian's almost 5 and this little boy is like 3??

I NEVER. EVER. Let Ian or Morgan out to play by themselves unless its on the back patio and my blinds are ALWAYS open as is the door. I almost ran over another little boy on his scooter who dashed out infront of my van (I was going maybe 10MPH) and I rolled the window down and told him to get on the sidewalk and hes like "my mommy said I could play on the road" oh boy good thing I KNOW your momma cuz once Im done with you......grrrrr........

[ShannonMVT]

That would make so mad too! 4 or 6 years old is NOT old enough to be out playing unsupervised.

[Mars]

That's horrible! And how could you leave your kids at the playground without supervision. I would have been livid.

[Oriyan]

I don't get it -- parents know (and we know) the kinda sick sad world we live in today -- I would NEVER leave my child alone ANYWHERE. My neighbors at my complex let their kids roam around unsupervised and it is SO UNSAFE! I live in a town that borders a town with a LOT of bad people and sex offenders, not to mention, I am about 500 yards from a main road. Not to mention these kids CONSTANTLY run up to my door and provoke the dog and he barks and if the baby is sleeping -- what a nightmare. They CONSTANTLY bother DH and I or try to touch the baby or make the dog go crazy..... I hate parents like that!!!

[soImarriedAnerd]

I would call the police to report a lost child i mean the parents MUST be so concerned that their very young children weren't at home .....but I can be a B1tch like that.

[~*sierra*~]

lol i love it angela!

[LisanAndy]

I'm so sorry for little Cambria I live in a big apartment complex and the kids here are HORRIBLE. I hate it here! Andy and I are getting out of here as soon as our lease it up which isn't until next Feb I have cops, ambulances, and fire trucks here at LEAST once a week, kids have gone missing because the moms don't watch their 4 YEAR OLDS in the parking lot. The teens destroys property... it's crazy. The list could go on and on. That's what I get for moving back into the city.. the conveniences aren't worth it!

[Trannyfromtheuk]

Poor Cambria I hope she didnt get to freaked out!

I would have gone mad. If their parents are not there they obviously think they can get away with that kinda crap!

There is a little girl next door to us and shes just turned 5 last month. When we moved in here last year she was playing on the front... on her own, noone watching or anything. She then askes if Mia can play out with her Um No! She wasnt even two at that point!
Everytime shes seen us since then she keeps asking if Mia can play out with her and everytime ive said no. She wont even be playing out in the front on her own at 5. Its just too dangerous these days.

[**Jenn**]

Poor Cambria. I've had kids do that that Liam and Lochy too and I've really had to learn to say something. Usually the parent is right there but doesn't say a word to the kid so if they're not going to discipline them then I have a right to protect my child and say something to that kid. I can't imagine letting Liam and Loch play at a playground by themselves. My parents have a fenced in back yard and I don't let them play out there by themselves. Anything can happen in an instant, even if you're right there, so why take the chance of leaving your child unsupervised for something even worse to happen?

[Adriana's Mommy]

Wow.. I'm sorry you had to deal with kids like that.. Makes me wonder if that's how their culture is.. sad to say.. But each culture raises kids differently..

We live in a upper class neighborhood and some people still don't parent their children.. I think it happens everywhere, no matter where you live.. I personally wouldn't let my kids play outside by themselves.. I'm worried about people and animals.. I figure if deer and moose come into the city, what about the bear, mountain lions, and coyotes.

I once over heard a mom yelling at some kids.. I personally thought she was in the wrong.. She was cussing at them and all they were doing was playing.. The lady was just mad because her toddler wanted to go where they were and they didn't move and they were there first. I was so close of telling her that wasn't right but she left before I could say something..

[~* Helen *~]

Aww poor Cambria I hate it when other kids behave like that ... its not fair on the child they are doing it to and its down right mean and nasty !!!
