Family member said something I don’t like :(

[Sunflower2478]

Hi everyone,

Just looking to a bit of advice as I don’t know if I’m overreacting or not and need to check myself for being over sensitive!

My ten year old was being a bit impatient this morning about wanting to go back home from a family visit and a family member told him he was being a brat. Yes his behaviour was a bit irritating and I myself told him to settle down a bit, but overall hes a good kid and I don’t like hes been called that on Christmas Eve as well! 😭 I feel really annoyed.

what would your thoughts be?

thanks so much x

Post about him being impatient to go home again but this time pretend he’s an adult woman visiting her husband’s relatives, and you’ll get much more sympathetic responses.

That depends. I would have less sympathy for an adult woman expressing impatience about leaving in front of her hosts.
