I honestly didn't mean anything like that, and I'm sorry. I can see other toddlers, I know they don't all manage those polite words. It's just that Ana does, and it gets tiresome constantly hearing "Wow, she said *blank*!" because it's not a big deal.
*hugs*
I never said anybody's kids aren't kind, decent, or compassionate - when it comes to that, I hardly ever manage a please myself. My requests go like this "can you do something for me? Thanks. Oh, please!" and I get embarassed. Or I say thanks but I say it soft and people don't hear me (and get mad, which gets me mad.... gah)
I don't want to say anything against anybody's kid (except maybe "those who tap on the glass need to not do that, or be stopped from doing it"), just "please don't comment all the time on the kid I'm with, it gets awkward". If you randomly come up and say "oooh, your kid did something polite", I *do* wonder about you - but if your kid doesn't do it, I leave it be.
