Angered by a young child for upsetting her son, a mother seeks petty revenge to get the girl into trouble, and it works!
Bonding Time
The mother of a one-year-old decided to take her son to the playground for some fun. She loved spending time with him, especially when she could see he was having a great time! It was her favorite thing to do.
Nasty Child
At the playground, there were several kids, including a bratty 4-year-old girl with a mean streak. She’d seen her there before and often caused trouble among the younger kids.
Often Alone
She’d also noticed that the girl was often alone after arguing with other kids. Though she’d never overheard a conversation previously, it dawned on her that she bullied other kids too!
A Spiteful Comment
This little girl, for some reason, had an unfriendly attitude and told her son, who didn’t know any better, “You’re not invited here!” The mother was furious, knowing the impact that it could have on her son!
Bad Reputation
While she didn’t appreciate her son being bullied, she didn’t want to become an overly sensitive helicopter parent who shields their child from everything. She wanted him to be able to stand up for himself.
Avoiding Conflict
Instead of confronting the situation directly, she decided to let it go and moved her son to a different area to play. It wasn’t the smartest move, but she didn’t want to cause her son any upset.
A Strict Guardian
Later on, the mother noticed that the girl’s grandma was there. She watched her for a while and noticed that she seemed like a strict, no-nonsense kind of grandma.
Shouting at Kids
At one stage, a group of lads kicked a football in her direction, and she gave them a firm telling-off for not respecting her personal space. The kids walked off looking timid and embarrassed.
Silent Sympathy
The mother felt worse for her son. He was too young to understand, but she was conscious that small gestures like these could have an impact on a person in later life. She wasn’t prepared to let that happen.
A Crafty Plan
She saw an opportunity to teach the bratty girl a lesson, so she devised a plan to bait her into misbehaving in front of her grandma. It was a mean trick, but she hoped it might teach the kid a lesson about manners and social etiquette.
A Slow Approach
Gradually, and over the course of a few minutes, the mother manipulated the scenario to position her son closer to the nasty girl, knowing that her son wouldn’t fully comprehend the situation.
An Accidental Approach
She encouraged her son to move to a certain area, aware that the young girl was standing there, watching other kids with hawk-like eyes. She urged her son to move nearer to the spot.
A Thoughtful Kid
Her son did as she said, and she felt a certain guilt. He was a sweet, thoughtful child who never caused any trouble. He simply liked playing with other kids and would do anything to please them.
Taking the Bait
Her plan worked! As soon as the girl spotted her son, she ran over to him and exclaimed, “I said you’re not welcome here! Go away!” Her son looked mortified and just stopped in his tracks!
Throwing a Tantrum
Her grandma heard her, and the girl got into trouble; her grandma decided it was time to go home since she ‘couldn’t be nice!’ The woman grinned as the girl threw a tantrum while leaving the park.
Refusal to Leave
At one point, the girl resisted the decision and pulled away from her grandma. She tried to run back to the other kids, crying and screaming, but her grandma insisted on leaving.
Embarrassing Kids
Part of her thought that the grandma simply wanted to go home, too, especially as the kid’s tantrum was clearly embarrassing her. She kept looking around at other parents and trying to smile.
Learning Boundaries
The mother was angry as she understood the importance of teaching boundaries to her one-year-old. She always tried her hardest to instill good values and morals into him, despite his young age.
Teaching Respect
She also actively tried to teach him, for instance, not to touch other kids’ toys without permission and would explain why it’s essential to respect personal property. It was necessary from the earliest age.
Feral Child
It struck her that the issue with the young girl lay with her parents. She had no concept of the playground as a shared space where kids interact and play together. The girl had possibly copied bad behavior.
Hopes for the Future
The mother hoped that, while her approach may have been unconventional, it was an attempt to teach a lesson about the consequences of one’s actions. She hoped the kid had learned a lesson, though she wasn’t convinced!
Free from Disruption
Interestingly, over the next few visits to the same area, the mother noticed that the young girl and her grandma weren’t there, so perhaps being shown up had been a success!
