Dear Pretending to be very Close Aunt of N,
I know that you think that you are the best and kindest person in this whole world because you counsel two or three poor women about their children but dear aunt that doesn’t really give u an authority to pass a judgement on any and every child
Yes my child goes to a Montessori called XXX and no it wasn’t started FOR mentally challenged kids ONLY and thanks for showing your concern and asking that is everything fine with my child
Next time please be careful I might tell you what is not fine WITH YOU at ur face
Yours obedient daughter in law,
Monika
Edited to Add : people not to misunderstand the post, I have absolutely nothing against special kids infact they hold a special place in my heart I have worked with them for almost 3 years in a school and each class in Ojas’s school has a special kid a fact which I am very proud of but I have a problem with the whole attitude of the lady and the fact that she was so rude without even knowing the facts
Monika's World 
Firstttt!
Yay! And me first here 😉 Some telepathy that 😛 😛
I would hv blasted her! Hugs Mons. They are best ignored anyway.
yeah true they are best ignored but sometimes thats very difficult to do
LOL posting at the same time I think 😉
Hats off for ignoring her each and every time, but if she still doesn’t ease up with the ‘concern’ next time round, do give her a lesson in empathy and the great work that integrated schools are doing in developing children with a heightened level of sensitivity to all humanity and the world at large. In other words, shut her up, do!!
I so wish I could do that M4 right now I have just decided to ignore her as much I can 😦
Ignoring elders is one of the most difficult things. They have their way of looking at things, and when ours do not match theirs, then for me, its always been a dismissive, authoritative remark on how naive I am in the said matter!
At times I so feel the need to tell them, things are different the way I see it, but then I really wonder whether they will understand. Eventually I always let go. Very irritating!
I agree with aathira but here I dont think its the matter of their different ways its just plain rudeness…
I don’t understand why people are sooooooooooooo curious??? Why do they need to know if things are fine or not? What the hell is their darn business??? I wish we could just whack such people, but unfortunately we cannot.Atleast in a traditional Indian household, every man/woman from the husband’s side is a veritable God/Goddess and any word spoken against that person is blasphemy!! Sigh!
yeah and saying something to those gods is not allowed right but next time I am telling u Iam going to give her back whatever the result be
Go for it Mon!!!!!!!!! Proud of u 🙂
Huh?!!!!!?!!
that was exactly my reaction chox… and hence I couldnt even reract when she was saying all this it was only later I realised that she meant that is Ojas a mentally challenged kid because he is going to a school which has kids like this
I still think its huhn??!!???
People seriously dont know when to mind their own business…sheesh! 😛
sheeesh to the power infnity
Ignore her twice and third time give it back. Age doesnt assure respect if one doesnt know how to get it.
ps -whats LPR by the way?
its LRP iya, letter to random people… this is the 4th one I am doing my way of taking the rants out 😛
People and their “concerns”… Bleah to them!
I can think of a million more things to tell her!!! 👿
I’ll keep my hormonally-charged self calm, and say that you are right in not reacting too much.
Relatives… should be seen, not heard. And seen from very very far… maybe in snaps only? *evil laughter*
he he joins crafty in the evil laughter
Hugs… you have dealt with her quite calmly! I would have blasted her for sure!!
why do folks have to be so curious?! This is bad curiosity and not the good kind! bah!
The problem is no matter how so ever much we make it obvious to our so-called well-wishers that we dont need their advices, they refuse to understand. This habit of interfering in others’ lives is so ingrained that they just dont want to let us be :(… Annoying to the core!
Maybe you can ask N to blast her 🙂 I leave all the unpleasant duties of dealing with hubby’s family to him only. Cos if he doesnt and I am rude later I should not be blamed!
I second that!
Oh…these nosy ppl shld keep their mouth shut….
Ignore them all, Monu.
