A woman was out to dinner with her family in Idaho when two grandmothers from another booth slammed down a pink note on her table. She couldn\u2019t believe the ugly message she read on the otherwise pretty piece of paper.<\/h3>\n

Katie Leach wasn\u2019t concerned with who was sitting near her. She wasn\u2019t there to constantly watch over her shoulder or ensure that strangers had a good time. All Katie wanted to do was enjoy some family time with her young son Drew. The bubbly 10-month-old boy had been doing what toddlers do when they\u2019re happy \u2014 laughing, clapping, and occasionally letting out some uncontrollable excitement.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe had been screaming off and on just with everybody as they were singing happy birthday. And when one of the waitresses would come up, he\u2019d scream to tell them hi,\u201d Katie said. \u201cWe all tried quieting him down which a majority of the time he did, but he also was so excited to be around all the commotion. He was not yelling to be mean or because he was mad, it was purely from excitement and being happy.\u201d<\/p>\n

The joyous noise was rather infrequent during the time the Leach family dined together, and it is a typical part of the ambiance at the family-friendly eatery. As normal as the instance was and is to be expected at a restaurant like that, two older women had a lesson for this \u201cdisrespectful\u201d mother whose son \u201cruined\u201d their meal.<\/p>\n

The mother admitted that her son\u2019s \u201cnew thing\u201d was being loud, but she added that it wasn\u2019t as though Drew was yelling the entire time. He was just excited, and when his emotions got away from him, he let out an occasional hyper screech. \u201cI\u2019m doing my best to teach him indoor voice and to not yell back at me when telling him no etc, but he is only 10 (almost 11 months) and LEARNING,\u201d the mother\u00a0explained<\/a>.<\/p>\n

About halfway through the meal, two customers in \u201ctheir late 50\u2019s or early 60\u2019s\u201d slammed a disapproving note down on the table between Katie and her young son. The two women then returned to their table which was located directly behind the Leach family.<\/p>\n

Katie was shocked by the audacity of these intolerant older women, who lacked compassion and class when putting their opinion on paper. \u201cThank you for ruining our dinner with your screaming kid. Sincerely, the table behind you,\u201d the bright pink note read.<\/p>\n

Katie was left feeling at a loss for words. Trying to make amends as well as defend herself and her son, Katie went to their table and explained that Drew was still learning how to behave in public. \u201cHe\u2019s so young,\u201d Katie said. \u201cHe barely understands now. I mean he\u2019s starting to learn that when we tell him no that means to tone it down, which he was doing.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

The women responded by comparing their grandkids with Katie\u2019s child, saying that they would never behave the way Drew did. If their grandchildren actually are well-behaved, they didn\u2019t learn it from dear old disgruntled grandma, who feels it\u2019s her place to butt into other people\u2019s business and tell strangers how they are parenting the wrong way.<\/p>\n
