Dear Annoying Red Bikini Lady,
Today was the first time that I saw you at Crystal Lake Pool. I also noticed that you made a beeline to the lifeguard stand to complain about two boys that were roughousing in the pool. You said that the oldest one was being mean to the little one. You wondered where their mom was. (I was right there)
I noticed that you didn't have any children with you. So there is a possibility that you couldn't understand that after the sixty-fifth time that they were told to stop fighting and the fact that I was sick, I figured that splashing in the pool was harmless, relatively speaking. They weren't in danger.
You wouldn't know that I am usually the mom that watches their kids like hawks especially around the pool. I am nowhere near the other moms who just blithely sit by while their kids are doing stunt jumps and the like. Before you put your nose in a situation where kids are not in danger, I would think about these things. You don't know me and don't know my kids. It sucks that you make such sweeping judgements. Too bad for you.
Unsincerly yours,
Stalker Mom
Ah, I love it when strangers (especially those without children) comment on parenting or give unsolicated parenting advice.
