Not overreacting.

I would call them back to the table and give them a lecture about manners. But then, I'm a bit of a cow like that Smile

Bad manners towards you op, especially getting up from the table.

Yanbu they were rude

Is one of them an adult? have words and tell them that they are setting a shite example and that the rudeness stops now!

A little bit of respect and a large dose of good manners is required at all times!

yes one of them was my DP. i have said to them. i never got an apology they all just looked at me.

If this happens tomorrow, call them on it at the time. Unless they are toddlers, I think everyone should remain at the table until everyone has finished.

A "thank you" would be nice too. That said, I had a friend who used to make her DC say "Thank you for a lovely meal. Please may we get down from the table?" at the end of every meal, and that used to grate on me.

Bad manners, don't make them dinner tomorrow-just cook for yourself.

point out my two year old speech delayed child says thank you (almost) every-time i give him food (he also gives me a resounding well done mommy when i go up a kerb no idea why)

my point is they are rude and wrong!

YANBU that is just rude. My DP gets up before I've finished and I hate it. It feels like a lack of respect iykwim. He just says he can't be bothered to wait so he'd rather be tidying up around me still trying to eat Hmm
