I think I remember the kid that you speak of... He was bullying little kids and my son had to hollar at him to be nice.. Austin doesnt like bully's and it upsets him immensly as it should anyone for that matter..
My daughters were their and it best not been them.... I have ALWAYS stressed that they have fun BUT NEVER be a pain in the butt to anyone. AnnaBell is a good girl and Virginia is also at least most of the time.
No, it was mostly a band of boys that were wild--there were some girls that were playing (poop and shavings in their long hair from rolling on the ground LOL!) but the girls would obey the simplest of redirection...a comment to just be careful was regarded with respect. The boys? it was as if nothing was ever said to them; you can tell when kids are allowed to not mind! I am just afraid that when these kids run--at top speed--all over the auction barn, that they will knock over some of our older friends...or anyone for that matter...can you imagine how a fall onto some of those ratty chicken pens would affect a person? I suppose I am more sensitive about this than other folks are since I am not very steady on my feet anymore since being hurt badly at work (the knee that the kid banged into at the auction no less). I just wish that parents would be more responsible with their kids. As I said, there were kids crawling and hiding under trucks in the parking lot in the DARK...and I didn't see a parent anywhere to speak to them at all...and I find that the scariest of all. All it would take is someone jumping in their truck to move it to let someone out of the parking lot, or moving a truck to load purchases...and you have a kid severely injured or killed. It makes me really worry,
and I am generally not a worrier!
Ahem...Suzi is going to step off the soapbox now. I am sure ya'll wanna
me by now!!
