AIBU to be annoyed about child on school run

[LegoVsFoot]

My two youngest DCs go to the local nursery and we often walk with another mum and child on the school run.

We normally chat and get on but her child can be a bit bossy/rude and she never says anything. Stuff that I would always give a warning about - teasing with toys/snacks, shouting, saying 'you're not my friend' etc. Even to the point the nursery workers heard and said 'that's not nice'.

AIBU to say something next time? I tend not to say anything to other peoples' children but mine are well behaved (and if not I tell them off!) and I don't want them to think it's ok, especially when the mum doesn't say anything.

I would avoid them and either walk by yourself or with another mum.

Please say something, making sure it is in front of the mum. Make a point of ensuring the mum knows that you are making an exception by saying something, perhaps the message might register.

Hmm… In the last few months OP you’ve posted a few threads which don’t really add up. Are you not too busy with your 50 hour a week job OP, or organising visits for your ex with one child, to walk your two children to nursery- one of whom is your first but isn’t born yet? 🧐

good detective work!

Maybe the 'little shit' has autism, ever thought of that *@Youdoyoutoday* ???

Wow

And maybe they dont

How incredibly offensive to assume shitty behaviour = autism

@Bloodypunkrockers When have I said it was shitty behavior ?? That wasn't my wording!! I have an autistic dd she can be quite blunt but doesn't mean to be rude is what I meant but feel free to be offended

Awkward! My brother’s kids are like that. Is lazy parenting. Just say something to the child, the mum will probably back you up. Or if you reeeeaaallly don’t want to talk to the child, perhaps say something loud to yours like “Oh dear, sounds like somebody put their grumpy face on today, let’s go walk somewhere more friendly shall we?”
