Ok so.... I took the kids to Mc Donalds Friday as I promised for like a week. A friend of mine came with and her little girl who is almost 3. The kids were having a great time, playing for about an hour. At a table close by was an older lady, I'm guessing in her 70's with her 2 grand or great grand Children, I'm also guessing 3ish and 2ish. Anyway after we had been there for an hour or so, she (old lady) came out of the bathroom with her two grandchildren and I guess found Reece at their table, doing who knows what..... anyway she came out of the bathroom and I'm not kidding SCREAMED " GET AWAY FROM OUR TABLE"! Seriously Screamed it!!!! At Reece... my 3 year old! My friend and I were stunned as was everyone else there! Reece of course started to cry, and ran to me. I cant even tell you how MAD I was! I guess my mother protection instinct kicked in. So I told Reece that she needed to say sorry, and got up and walked over to there table with her, and she said sorry through her tears, and than I said "Mam, I'm sorry that she was at your table, I didn't know that she was, but that is NO excuse to scream at a 3 yr old!!!! It took everything I had to walk away then, I sooooo could have said sooooo much more! Try not to sink to her level right? Man it was hard! I hope she did feel bad though, is that bad of me? I wanted to say if she talks to her grand kids that way, I would feel really sorry for them! Or a million other things! Anyway we of course rounded up the kids to leave, I was afraid for the kids lives at that point, seriously this lady was a little unstable! OK so I think that Reece may have been messing with their food....and I know If some kid was doing that to ours, it would be a little annoying, but I would have nicely said please don't touch our food, or told their parents, and so on. But REALLY?? Scream at a 3 year old.....It was like she was treating Reece like a pesky fly, screaming and shewing her away from the table....Crazy huh??? Like I said some people... especially people like that make it very hard for me to love one another the way I know I should!

That's awful! I'm sorry that had to happen to you and Reese, glad you could be a good example.
that's ridiculous! I would have had a hard time not chewing her out too! I'm sure I'd give her plenty of dirty looks and say my fair share of comments. :) Poor Reece!
