To think this is rather petty.

[Iliveinalighthousewiththeghost]

I took my D.D and nephew out the other day and we had a game of crazy golf. My nephew is 21 months old. Anyway we were behind this family. Now keep in mind my D.N is 21 months old a baby doesn't know any different or about patience ect which no-one would expect him to.
Anyway to get straight to the point D.N hit the golf ball and this grown man turned around and went (to a baby keep in mind). It's my turn first. I looked at him like he had 10 heads and said. "He's a baby". He just gave me a look and carried on playing.

So if he'd pointed to a pub would you have taken him there? Or to a pack of fags, would you have given him one?

Bonkers reason for taking a kid anywhere. Hard to tell from your op where your dn was, but if he was getting in other players' ways, then yabu! But 21 months is too young for crazy golf anyway. He won't understand it, or have the coordination to play, so what's the point?

Yay we got a third! High five!
Can we have a fourth?
Please could you tell us your age in the fourth?

Petty is :
a) harping on and on and on about something trivial, where you're clearly in the wrong.
b) disagreeing with everyone who has told you you're in the wrong.
c) flouncing off only to come back and flounce again.

Petty is NOT:
saying "It's my turn first" when it's your turn in a game of crazy golf.

Well, I reckoned she'd still be reading

But surely if you can win in a nuclear face-off you're The Daddy rather than the one being petty.

Hello Everyone It's Only crazy golf -
get a grip -
the man was rude to you - bad behaviour -
your nephew was being a baby ...
IT'S ok - silly man Crazy Golf .
It'll be fine in the morning .. Just watch out for those silly types that play silly games ... And walk away ..

New definitions of rudeness...

Could you provide a translation for those of us slightlyharried who don't speak facebook?

I did wonder if there was a school holiday or teacher training day because the op really does sound young.

Has OP name changed to slightlyharried?
All these pages and finally one solitary person pipes up that the man was rude and DN is a baby.
Hilariously inept attempt

I think the 'Hello Everyone' kind of gives it away just a tad.

It's not about people not liking you op. it's not a popularity contest.

You asked a question (aibu)

People answered (yanbu)

Most people would say, oh ok I hadn't seen it like that, (not arse licking or whatever you want to call it, it's acceptance that you might be wrong). You're serial flouncing is frankly ridiculous

This is repeat flouncing at its very finest. OP could hold seminars on it

Oh! Another flounce! How delightful.

Epic thread, move to Classics?

Fgs he wasn't interrupting the us open or even a proper game of golf - the man was unreasonable to be such a nob, if possible keep an eye out for little ones getting in others way but generally if one slips through everyone could be a little better natured about it - helps the world to rub along without the need for unpleasantness.

OP name changed to maddening now?

How about negligent carers being a little better natured, maddening (aka OP)?

The OP's posts demonstrated total disregard for anyone except herself and DN, as if they have some sort of inalienable right to do what they please and to heck with everyone else. All of the unpleasantness came from OP - the chap concerned merely said "it's my turn first" which cannot possibly be construed as unpleasant. It's actually a good deal more polite than I suspect most people would be given the attitude she's demonstrated on here.

Ah, this is the thread that keeps on giving! I'm loving the latest name change as it is terrifically apt.

Thats 3 in favour of the op to how many not in favour??

You've got bats in your lighthouse.

(Clutches pearls & hankie) What is wrong with you people? Why don't you all just realize that the world MUST revolve around the children!!! That all adults must make way for the toddlers and those who love them. That all adults must be OUTRAGED if another adult criticizes a child (or those who love said child). That we all MUST agree that it is WRONG when anyone mentions that a child was (sharp intake of breath) corrected by a person other than their parent/caregiver/whatever.

There is NO EXCUSE for telling OP that SIBU! Obviously she was in the right and her DN should have been allowed to 'play through'!! (Hoikes bosom in righteous indignation)

Oh just in case………….s/

On the premise that Crazy Golf is a light hearted game not to be taken seriously - Jesus! not in our family, we play to win and there has been crying and raging and pistols at dawn over it at times (and that's just dh and I). So different strokes for different folks - what is one persons frivolous pastime is indeed on a par with the US open for others

I wonder how the OP would have behaved if she was about to hit the ball and was interrupted.
I bet she'd be ever so nice and cheerful and just ask the people to go ahead of her. It's just a silly game. Might as well let everyone else push in front.
