So on the weekend my son was in a performance at his school, my DP, DD and I were sitting in the audience near another parent who had about 5 kids with her. During the intermission, my DP, DD and I were sitting and talking to each other while waiting for the show to begin again.
This parent was in the row behind me with her DP and 2 of her DC and 2 were in our row, with 1 of them sitting next to me. I was suddenly hit in the arm by this child and I ignored it at first. It continued to happen and this child and the one sitting next to her were laughing about it. After a few times I turned around to the parent and said 'excuse me, your daughter keeps hitting my arm'. The parent just looked at me and said 'well she doesn't mean it' and went back to her conversation. I turned back around and was checking my phone, she then leaves her row and comes and stands in front of me and says 'you were aggressive there are lots of kids here, you have overreacted, kids muck around. Get over it' I told her I was sorry if my tone came across as aggressive but it had happened a few times and I thought she should know her daughter was hitting other people. She replied that 'well she is not my daughter and she was bored, you cant expect her to sit still for a whole show'. My DP stepped in and asked if she could go back to her seat as my DD was getting upset.
Today I saw her at the school gates and she approached me and told me that she still thinks I overreacted and I should apologise for telling her about the child hitting me. I told her this happened on the weekend, I wasn't going to keep going on about it and walked away. She then started yelling after me that I hated kids. Another friend of hers came up to me and said I was being unreasonable and should apologise again to her. AIBU?
