That would be "mind your own bidniz."

Monkey started karate recently. There's a small waiting area right outside of the classroom, with a big glass window for the parents to watch the kids. We made it to an early class and there were only two other kids in his class.

At one point, a few minutes before the class ended, I turned to give Bear a snack and when I turned back, I didn't see Monkey anywhere in the class. But, I did see one of the instructors gesturing a "come here" towards the corner, so I figured that was where he was. Not sure if he had a time out or what was going on.

Anyway, a parent whose child is in the class following Monkey's had just shown up with her child and asked her child, "Have you ever had to have a time out in class?" He told her no and she goes on to remark, "I've never seen anyone have to have a time out during class. That little boy must have done something really bad."

Okay, HELLO?????? Tiny little waiting room, only three other parents besides her in it, obviously the child she was talking about had a parent sitting right there where they could hear. How rude.

Btw, I asked the instructor why Monkey was in time out. Turns out, he wasn't. He was tired from doing all the jumps and told the instructor that he "needed a little rest over here."

Too bad the rude and presumptious parent didn't overhear that.
