Reply #110: HER lack of manners?

[pitohui]

everyone involved in the story lacked manners -- the 5 yr old gets a pass

you don't know the lady's background or culture, what if she was from chalmette, louisiana (good odds this time of century since the town was totally destroyed, maybe she was venice, louisiana, totally destroyed and will never be rebuilt, etcetera and so on) -- in south louisiana it is only good manners to pipe up and say something, anything

she was telling the kid she could be a stock broker, it wasn't like telling the kid she was janitor in a drum

hello?

you were just as cruel and rude as she was, maybe more so, since you have an education

as i say above, this story is sad on many levels, you scored points off someone trying and struggling to be nice despite a lack of education and opportunities, i hope you feel proud
