We’re currently on holiday in Spain and got to know another family. Their daughter is the same age as my son - 9. We also have a 6 year old daughter.
Their other family’s 9 year old - I’ll call her Sarah - is visibly overweight/fat with breast growth. She’s an only child.
When were on a trip to another town yesterday the other mum got tipsy and said at lunch - all 7 of us were on the same table - and the mum pointed to an elephant in a book my daughter was reading and said “Sarah’s as fat as that”. -
My daughter giggled and repeated it and I could see Sarah’s face and she was very upset.
A bit later on Sarah still looked upset and wasn’t really interacting at all and her mum sharpiy snd curtly (about my daughter - let’s call her Maisie) said to Sarah;
”look she’s TRYING to make friends with you”.
As we all walked back to the bus stop - my 9 year old son said to Sarah -
“Don’t worry, Maisie (his sister) has called me fat as well”
in other words, my 9 year old DS failed to acknowledge Sarah’s mother’s fault in all this?
AIBU to now have realised that Sarah’s mum is a rancid toxic bitch?
How can someone be like that to their own 9 year old child?
