Some people are freaks!

I was at a party at my daughter's daycare/preschool today. They were having an open house and science fair, showing their science projects, pot luck, dancing, it was really nice. One mom brought this prospective family and happened to introduce me to the dad holding his baby boy. We were chatting and his wife, who had not been there when we first met, came over, didn't even look at me, tapped him and started to walk off, I said, "Ok, nice talking to you" and he followed her. 

I could not believe it.  What did she think, I was trying to move in on her man?  I was there with my family!! Good god, what a freak!!! I just can't even imagine doing that. You?

    Don't judge, I have done that before. It is not about you, it is about, "DH WTF have you been for the last 15 minute, We agreed to going home at noon and it is 12:10 and the kids are hungry/tired/poop themselves/crying."  I honestly could care less about my husband talking to someone married single or whatever...when it is time, IT IS TIME and honestly I don't really care your opinion of me because I have more important things to worry about and if by chance our kids go to school together and we see each other again, you either understand or you don't. 

    (Just my perspective from a person who has done something similar more than once.)

    Well they had just arrived, and he had the perfectly happy looking child in his arms. She could have nodded and smiled, it was weird.

    Totally rude!
    Nobody said life would be easy, they just promised it would be worth it.

    I think your assumption could be off. If he was holding a baby, that mom was probably really tired and it was her way of saying, "Let's go now or it's you versus my hormones." Any sane guy would have walked away in a situation like that, even if it is was rude to you, because he doesn't want the wrath of tired wife. 

    You have to remember... there are kids who hate sleeping. Mine are some of those kids. So as a mom, I'm pretty fried most of the time. Every day is just surviving. If I had to go to some open house thingy,and I was at my limit, I probably wouldn't worry about hurting someone else's feelings by having to go suddenly because as another mother, you might know or be sympathetic to what that person is going through.

    No they JUST got there, and they were not leaving, she just wanted him to come meet someone else. I would totally understand a crying kid or some acute situation. Nothing like that. anyway, I would not do that.

    I agree that it's rude and wouldn't do that no matter how frazzled I was that day. Even if you do need to leave that instant, it is always possible to say, "excuse me for interupting, but kiddo is having a meltdown/needs a nap/whatever and we need to leave now" before walking away. Having read the follow-up that she just wanted him to talk to someone else - wow, there is no excuse.

    Exactly what I was going to say. It doesnt take much effort to ensure that, at the very least, you're not perceived as extremely rude.
