Thread: Harassed While Walking Home from the Park Today!

Re: Harassed While Walking Home from the Park Today! Maybe I overreacted with my anger, but at the same time, it is so unacceptable when men think they can get away with saying that crap. What if my babe was old enough to comprehend what he was saying, kwim? I really want DS to grow up respecting women and treating others with kindness and respect... But I guess being decent parents will help teach him that, I hope __________________...

Surely there is a step futher you can go if need be. That sucks that they have to be like that. The most maddening part of it is...

Glad your DH handled it. I think kids just don't realize when they're no longer just kids.

Re: Harassed While Walking Home from the Park Today! i probably would have done the same as you did. having my son there and all... there was one occasion when a lady made a comment about me and i was too shocked to say anything but then turned around a few minutes later and gave her a peice of my mind, but that was in my angry pregnant woman rage days so sorry you had to deal with that __________________ http://dealiscious.blogspot.com/ (my...

Re: Harassed While Walking Home from the Park Today! I'm sorry. I've dealt with my fair share of it. I try to just keep my mouth shut or yell that I'm married and keep walking but it does get really annoying. Sometimes being confrontational in those sort of situations can make the situation worse though and can sometimes be dangerous for you so it's best to just walk away. __________________ *Megan*Wife to my High School...

Re: Harassed While Walking Home from the Park Today! I would have done the same thing if I had my kid with. What happened when your DH went down there? __________________ Elizabeth - wife Chad - WAHM to my loves Carmen 2/07 and Christian 11/08 Wanna Swag? Now selling AVON and mark.

Re: Harassed While Walking Home from the Park Today! I think you did the right thing. It would have pi$$ed me off too and I am generally out spoken and can stand up for myself just fine. BUT you had your baby with you and I think it was more important for you to just remove yourself from the situation safely. I would have done the same thing as you if I had my kids with me but would probably have confronted them if I had been on my own....

Re: Harassed While Walking Home from the Park Today! Next time take a recorder or camera with you and if they say anything immediately start recording and then call the police. __________________ Kimmyann -Happy Mama to Cory Alexander born 3/5/07 Placed in my arms on 3/7/07 ......Adoption IS an Option.

Re: Harassed While Walking Home from the Park Today! Sorry that happened to you mama, I probably would have done the same. I probably would have been scared to say anything thinking they would follow me home or something lol. Glad your DH said something, and I hope you don't have to encounter them again, but if you do and they act up I'd call the cops as well. __________________ Ashley,wife to Chris Mama to Madison (3) Non Vaxing,...

Re: Harassed While Walking Home from the Park Today! i agree with ignoring and walking away, especially when you have a kid with you. however, the only other thing that came to mind - if you would have said something, they would probably keep saying stuff to you. kind of like a little kid... how far can i push her before she gets pi$$ed. keep running their mouths and then laugh at you because they know they can get a rise out of you. i would...
