Hey, #nostr #plebs, how would YOU react?
Today I took my 1,5y daughter to a playground. On our approach I saw a mother. She was smoking on the bench, her young dog without a leash playing as well - taking piss on every possible place, including child toys…
At first, I did nothing, I respect other people and two simple rules:
- live and let live
- your freedom ends when my starts
But eventually the dog find it’s way to my girl and jumped right on her. It was not an attack, but she tripped over, sand in her face and eyes, dog jumping in joy on her… so she started crying.
At that moment I asked the other parent to leave the place immidiately.
She didn’t listen and sit back on the bench, again pulling out a cigarette from her purse.
I had to insist on her leaving as I was feeling my daughter will be under constant threat and stress from the dog.
She pulled out some idiotic arguments as “we were here first” and “the dog is young, he didn’t know…”.
Eventually I made them leave, telling her I tried to be tolerant, but enough is enough. But I didn’t feel victourious, quite the opposite actually… was I right? Was I wrong? I am sure she could do better, following the rules of public playground or at least watching the dog or have him on the leash… I’m just glad that the little girl is not hurt.
What’s your opinion on this?
