Rude or honest child?

My 6 year old has told a family member they didn’t like their birthday present from them. They also said the egg hunt was rubbish because they were asked to choose a prize from a bowl each time they found a cardboard egg. In the bowl were bags of popcorn, mini biscuits but no chocolate eggs.

I feel so embarrassed. I can’t stand ungrateful and rude children. We’ve always taught our children to have good manners and they both are highly praised at school for their ‘lovely’ manners.

Is my child just being honest or were they rude?
