Re: Strangers disciplining your kids...
Oh that's not what I am saying at all, nice try. :D [edit: Oh just so that you don't play the deflection game to cover your inept handling of the situation, I am not defending nor condoning the mother's lack of control nor the children's poor behavior].
Let me make it easy for you: you could've handled the children without boo-hoo'ing to their mommy. Some guppans have already mentioned some tactics. They work.
7 yr/olds are pushing you around. Tsk tsk. :D :D :D
