Parents of the OT, what’s the weirdest interaction you’ve ever had with another parent?

This is the parent equivalent of "you miss 100% of the shots you don't take"

Time to wait for pics of wife and the crazy mom

I probably should delete this. Dad probably posts here

POS got in my face after a U7 soccer game; telling me to teach my daughter some manners, calling her a dirty player and a danger to others.

He was talking about another person’s daughter and thought I was the father because she was standing next to me with my daughter.

My best OT response that would get 100 downvotes:

“Baw, I was gonna play bull with this woman while the dad watched. Now they don’t have a babysitter”

Also adding my story.

Watched a coke truck go full air brakes to avoid hitting a toddler in the street. Thank goodness he was able to stop. I jumped out of my truck and picked the kid up to get him out of the street. Mom walks out on the porch talking on the phone like nothing happened, takes the kid from me and walks back inside. Never says a word.

He had no idea he almost died and he had no idea who I was. He and I were two different races and it that moment none of it mattered. I had this kids undivided attention and he had a huge smile on his face. I was scared shitless.

Who tf just randomly asks people who might as well be strangers to keep their daughter overnight with no invitation or history of spend the night sleepovers?

Someone that really needs to get laid

The kids down the street came over one time because they had been playing with my kids outside, and their mom hadn’t come home from work (dad had left a few years before with a stripper or something)

So I fed them, let them watch a little tv - and brought them home around 8. Mom answered the door in a robe on the phone, let the kids in, and then shut the door.

The next day the kids told my kids they were moving closer to their dad that weekend. A moving truck came and that was that.

Before I was a parent, a girl who I knew from High School let me PIIHB.

She was already a parent.

Still had wet teats…

The couple one house over from me were terrible parents. Their first two boys were destructive as hell and they played it off as just “boys will be boys” BS. They had a third and the ditzy mom never watched them. One evening while my boys were playing with some other neighbors, I hear the front door open fully while I’m in the kitchen. I had it ajar so I can hear my sons. I assumed one of mine came inside. After about 30 seconds, I see this toddler wearing nothing but a diaper and t-shirt round the corner! He was barely two years old. I pick him up and walk him to the ditzy mom and she says “That is so cute.” I’m pissed and tell her that the child was inside my house and that I was calling child protection the next time anything like it happened again. She knew that I was a practicing attorney at the time and volunteered at Caddo Juvenile. This was my last straw because the two older demons.

I say demons because those two did the following all before the oldest turned seven: 1. took a machete to the neighbors’ newly planted tree; 2. Took their fathers bow and tried to shot arrows straight up in the air and at cars; 3. Made a Molotov cocktail and used on a golf cart: 4. Set fire to the plants of the neighbor behind them; 5. Caught a snake and let it lose in their dad’s truck (I did laugh at that).

My block throw a hell of a party when they moved! These parents would never discipline their kids and actually bitched to some common friends that “our neighbors are just so strict with their kids that our boys don’t have anyone to play with.” They were certified crazy.
