    Could have swung for a few this afternoon.

    Youngest has been proudly showing off her new Reds shirt after school this week. (For those that don't know we live in Deedarland)

    Well, until next doors friends (Wednesdayites) started making jokes along lines of "Don't wear that it smells". Haha very funny - we can all take a joke .... until day 2, when next door neighbour's little girl (who doesn't know anything about football) starts with it. ... and my daughter starts to say .... " I shouldn't wear this it smells". "Everybody says it smells"

    This afternoon, she come s home, puts it on, goes out to play & gets invited over to next door.... except the friend of next door (there again) says, "Oh no she can't come over wearing that", to howls of laughter.

    She's 5 years ols ffs! She doesn't understand irony. She just wants to play next door..... so she runs upstairs, changes her clothes and goes over.

    Thing is, I now have a 5 year old on my hands who thinks that if people laugh at her or tease her she has to change her behaviour so that she gets accepted. . I'm boiling mad.

    If it had been my eldest, it would have been fine because she'd have got the joke, but this in my view is no better than bullying.... and it is coming from so called "friends". I went straight out there & told them what I thought, but they were all too busy laughing.

    Someone tell me I'm not over-reacting?? (And no it's not that time of the month!!)

    Have given it 6 hours and I'm still furious.

    Get down to cheapo sports get a tesco carrierbag shirt and cover it with some appropriate animal faeces making it as stinky as possible.

    Hang it on next doors washing line.

    Job done.

    Childish, immature, need to grow up etc.

    How old are your Neighbours?

    Sounds like they take things too seriously over there.

    Saying that to a 5 year old is abit petty, infact... Extremely petty.

    Don't bite back at first, but if it carries on ask them the last 4 results with Barnsley and Wednesday.

    0-0, 2-1, 0-1, 2-2. What do they have in common? Not a Wednesday win in sight.... :D :D

    RE: Childish, immature, need to grow up etc.

    The neighbours are ok & not into football ..... but one of their friend (who is actually generally ok) is 30ish & a die-hard Wednesdayite. To be honest I think if she knew she'd upset me she'd be mega-apologetic, but that doesn't really help me with a 5 year old who thinks her Barnsley shirt is something that Satan delivered, and who thinks she has to conform before she's allowed to play.

    Suppose it didn't help me being on a Child Protection Course all day - thought I was being a bit over-sensitive.

    You do get emotional don't you. I'd suggest that your over reaction is more damaging to your daughter by embarrassing her. No wonder your neighbours laughed at you "satan" LOL

    Can you tell me

    Where you got yourself emotionally neutered?

    It must be great to consistently make a fool of yourself, and not care about it.

    Thing is

    I see quite a bit of support for that message.... you should try it some time ..... friendship.

    Sheffield Star does small ads, alternatively you could try Thailand.

    fired, I think you need to take a step back from the damaged idiot. He's a Misanthrope and as such no amount of cross dialogue will alter his behaviour. Might I suggest we, as a group, begin to ignore the man.

    Yes, you're right. Sometimes it's just so tempting to help him make even more of a fool of himself though.
