My cousin came over tonight pissed as hell. Her husband friend Brian and his 7 year old daughter came over to her house. Well mind you Brian's daughter can get annoying at times. Well n-e-ways my cousin son is 5 and he kept telling the girl to leave him alone.
He was trying to shut the door and she kept opening it. He finally got pissed off enough that he hit her in the face. It was not hard . He did not leave a mark or anything. They did not hear anything until she came out crying and screaming at the top of her lungs. She is a big drama queen.
Well before her son could explain fully what happen Brian jumps up and starts violenty screaming at him. "Saying what the hell did you do to her. Don't you ever put your hands on her." She said he looked like he was going to punch her son.
They were stunned shocked by this grown man yelling at this 5 year old. To make matters worse her husbands tells her to spank him and put him in the corner. Instead of telling his friend not to yell at his son he condones it.
He did not understand why she did not spank him but made him tell Brian's daughter he was sorry and had him stand in the corner.
Ok I do know this little girl because my Godmother use to baby sit her and when i would help she always tattled on the other kids. I could be standing out in the play area and seeing what was going on and she would come up to me and say that a kid hit her when they did not.
Now i not saying what her son did was right but no way in heck would some adult yell at my son. He is 5 and she is 7 come on now.
Sounds like a crap situation. I would have punished my son regardless and I would have asked that guy to get the fuck out of my house. I do not take kindly to grown adults yelling at my children. Correcting them when they do things that are out of line I get that. Screaming at my child HELL NO.
Omg...I would have thrown them both out of my house I don't care who's friend they were. Also...No mark, No punishment. If he had socked her a good one and gave her a black eye, yeah some time in the corner. But she was asking for the slap, he is only 5 so the no hitting females rule doesn't really apply.
Eh. Dads can be a bit overprotective of their little girls. I would have had my son explain his side of the story and apologize, then I would have asked him and his daughter to leave.
BUT I can't say I wouldn't freak out if some kid hit one of my kids either, I'd just be more likely to go off on their parent. LOL
i woulda knocked the adult out. no one yells at my baby boy. my kid would get in trouble but taht effer would be on the floor
I am amazed how you keep trying to make excuses for that boy hitting that girl. shes this and shes that blah blah blah. So what My son would of been in deep shit and I would of thrown that asshole out no one talks to my kids like that.
I am amazed that pp thinks that at 5 no hitting doesn't apply??? WOW this whole thing has me a little shocked.
BTW if you start letting a 5 year old try to justify why he hit her your giving the message if you can come up with a good enough excuse you are ok. I wouldn't care what she did short of hitting him first
her son hit her. The father was probably pissed. While the friend should of been told to leave the boy should still be punished for hitting. You don't hit. Period. I can tell you this. My husband would be angry as hell if we had a daughter and a boy hit her and her parents were just making excuses and blaming my daughter for getting hit. While the father's anger should of been at your cousin and her husband for not doing anything to remedy the situation..i can see how anger probably did take over.
I totally agree with erinsmom!! The kid needs to take responsibility for his actions and if she is "annoying" (or whatever other word you want to degrade this girl by using to describe her), he needs to USE HIS WORDS and come TALK TO AN ADULT.
No, the adult should not have yelled at him if it was not his child, but the point is, the child needed a consequence.. period.
