At the weekend I went to a pottery painting place with the children
At the next table were 6 adults, (3 couples) and their children, aged between 4 and 7.
The majority of the adults were painting small pieces as well as the kids. One of the women was painting a small , intricate Christmas decoration. She was doing it very carefully and it looked really good.
Towards the end of their time, the kids had finished, and two of the women were still painting, one of the men (I think it was her husband) said in a cutting tone of voice “ Aren’t you embarrassed ? Your son has finished two pieces and you’re still pissing about with that tiny one”
She ignored him, but I saw one of the other couples exchange glances, and I just felt awful for her. It was so condescending, in front of their friends (and her son) ....
My ex husband used to speak to me like that ...it’s not ok, is It?
