With Charlie's rude attitude I have been struggling alot this wee, I once again went to help with Nathan the little boy downstairs and before I went down I told Charlie that he could not bring a bike or a scooter. I head down and knock on Mrs Judy's door and before I can ask her to come out Charlie walks up with a very tiny bowling set to play with. He proceeds to tell Nat in a not nice voice that he can not play with it and before I can explain to Judy what it is and why she snaps and says do not bring things over here Nat can not play with he is too young to be teased. Which I can agree with. She then says I do not think we will be out. So Charlie and I go out and start to play with it and low and behold her they come. I have to have Charlie take it upstairs and he comes back down. His bike had been downstairs so I tell him where to ride it at and he does and he gets off and Judy is like the bike is not supposed to be out. I said it has been out all day I am not taking it back up right now. But by then Charlie had gone upstairs and gotten two balls. When he comes down I stop him and ask him if he is going to share and he says no. So I tell him to go back up stairs he starts to but changes his mind and hands one to Nathan and they play for almost 45 minutes when another of Charlies friends come out and ask if can come over and I tell him it is OK. Once again this upsets Judy but by then all Nat is wanting to do is run in circles and she had said she needed to change him as his mom should be there soon so I thought they where done playing. Well guess what she is upset again. So I am at a loss again on what to do or not do. So I decided to search the net and find some articles on manners to share with Charlie before Monday when Nat comes back and I found these and since I know many of you are parents I thought I would share them with you and see what you think of them.
