Good, I'd forgotten that," and give a smile if I make eye contact with the parent. I have to say, the only time I'm annoyed is when a child starts screaming curse words at their parents - the ones who *cough* //give them life//... which is probably quite extreme of me because most three-year-olds don't even know the word respect, much less what that actually means. (I have to say, though, occasionally when I see a child throwing a tantrum and a long-suffering parent trying to calm him/her, I think to myself 'It's futile, lady.' Being young, I remember my early childhood well-enough to know that a tantrum will be stopped by very few things.) In other news, I thought I'd just let you know that I came across your blog today, and I found it interesting so um... hi! Resident stalker/watcher/reader/whatever saying hello.
