your perseverance is admirable.

however, even if i were so inclined, i have no webcam, and no desire for one.

anyway, imagination is a wonderful thing.  :P
imagination is for girls.
Misunderstood.

Why did your daughter do that?


If I did that, I would have gotten in trouble for it, even as a toddler.

Because she reacted badly when people she didn't know came and got in her space.  This strange woman was threatening her mother, from her point of view...


I found that interesting because I can actually remember being five years old and flipping out when strangers showed up in familiar places.


As for the nasty refrigerators, that happens every few weeks in the break room where I work.

I can remember being at someone elses house when I was about that age and chucking a tantrum because they didn't have the specific sort of biscuits that I like. Mum was angry and I got smacked.

I can't comment, since I am one of the parents with a daughter who can sometimes be annoying to others in restaurants.

We try to teach her how to behave properly, but she has autism and pretty significant sensory issues.

My question is how can one expect these children to learn to behave properly if we don't keep trying to teach them?  She has gotten better.

I agree with Callaway. I have two sons on the spectrum..and sometimes they are the ones who sometimes get "The Look" from other people. if their behaviour is significantly affecting others and there seems no end in sight, I leave with them, so as not to disturb anyone further.

I'm sure.


people do that, too...but there is a different sort of vibe that goes along with it.

one vibe, people think I am going to stab them and eat their brains...

the other vibe, they think I'm the world's worst parent and my kids are monsters.



have I mentioned that people are assholes?
