Are people actually insane?

Yesterday at my son's sports day a family brought an bully type dog onto the field in amongst the kids activities. Am I mad in thinking this is just twatish behaviour. Not all kids like dogs and they had it amongst everything, put me totally on edge.

I'm now at my daughters ballet class and sat in the wait room full of babies and toddlers and a dad has brought what I am sure is an XL bully in this room. It's tugging on the lead wanting to get off and is getting increasingly agitated.

What would you do? Are some people total fucking morons or aibu?

@Beefcurtains79 I'm assuming the man got told to leave eventually as it wasn't there at the end races. But what fucking twat even thinks this is a good idea.

Yes ballet school is inside. I'm sitting about 4 metres away from this dog and just a bit frozen.

Cunt behaviour

Why was it allowed on school grounds? They aren’t on mine. Is the ballet school indoors?

Ok I'm glad it's just not me. I am HORRIFIED. I will email the dance leader. I've never owned a dog so I don't understand this mind set. But for fucks sake.

The mum and the dad are both here at the ballet wait room, surely one of you could have stayed at home with this dog. Twats!

YANBU.

I would probably email the manager of the dance school re: dog waiting for toddlers to finish ballet. How awful.

AnneLovesGilbert · 22/06/2024 09:34

Yes they are. Why were they allowed to take a dog to either event? Our school has no dogs, you wouldn’t be able to take one in.

Not insane.

Just terminally stupid and entitled.

Procrastinates · 22/06/2024 09:34

I find it very hard to believe no one from the school or ballet class have said anything? Confused

BrutusMcDogface · 22/06/2024 09:34

Fucking hell! No, you are not being unreasonable. How were the parents allowed to bring the dog to sports day? My local authority bans all dogs from school grounds.
