I have a dd (5) and ds(6). Very wealthy (biggest house in area) next door neighbour has a child "X" who is just about to turn 6.
Dcs go to local school. X goes to posh school. X does not play with local children but some of his older siblings do. Put as politely as I can, generally, there is a perception that our neighbours confuse wealth with status.
Anyway, at the weekend, ds asks X if he would like to come and play. X looks up and says "nah". Fair enough. 20 minutes later, X saunters in our garden to display his talents with his new toy. Does not address one word to the dcs except "look at me", repeatedly shouts at me to stop what I am doing and watch and then leaves as soon as he has finished without another word. Dh and I were pretty taken aback by the whole thing.
AIBU to say that the dcs can never invite this child again around again or is this normal behaviour which I should just accept? (There are one or 2 other incidents which may have prejudiced me).
