There are many things we let our little guy do that many people would consider dangerous (especially with how little he looks). But I'm not against telling kids not to push, hit, etc. </p> mrsjazz on "When you're at the playground with a friend, do you help out when their kids do something dangerous?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-youre-at-the-playground-with-a-friend-do-you-help-out-when-their-kids-do-something-dangerous#post-1302246 Thu, 26 Dec 2013 22:20:15 +0000 mrsjazz 1302246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do something regardless if it's a stranger or a friend. </p> wheres_c on "When you're at the playground with a friend, do you help out when their kids do something dangerous?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-youre-at-the-playground-with-a-friend-do-you-help-out-when-their-kids-do-something-dangerous#post-1302240 Thu, 26 Dec 2013 22:18:11 +0000 wheres_c 1302240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>yup, i dont care if anyone takes it personally, I'll step in if the kid is in danger </p> chopsuey on "When you're at the playground with a friend, do you help out when their kids do something dangerous?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-youre-at-the-playground-with-a-friend-do-you-help-out-when-their-kids-do-something-dangerous#post-1302237 Thu, 26 Dec 2013 22:16:52 +0000 chopsuey 1302237@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep!<br /> Omg today at the kiddie pool a little boy in a life jacket was struggling.

I try not to get too involved though, because I know some parents take it personally if you say or do something.</p> <p>Of course with my closest friends, none of this is an issue... we all look out for each others' kids.</p> <p>When you're at the playground with a friend, do you help out when their kids do something dangerous? </p>
