Yes I did an most times it's either because the person knows you are some time they just stare at you for no reason which is really irratating

A kid staring wouldn't bother me, they have all sorts of "kid things" going through their head and I don't think most of them intend to be rude. 

I could totally tolerate staring coming from a kid much better than an adult...

I agree that it was rude, and 99% of times is just bad manners this time and age parents are as rude as the kids and they do not learn manners since the parents have none.  But I do hope his mother asked what was happening.  That has never happened to me, but my daughter used to be friends with my next door neighbor's daughter (they were about 8 or 9 at the time), she is an only child and very, very rude.  She opened doors without knocking, was very nosy and did not pick even her plate after herself, when I reprimanded her she told me that it was my house so I had to do it because she was the "Guess".  1 day my husband drop the 2 of them and 1 more friend at the pool, this girl was the last one to come out of the car and did not closed the car door, when my husband yelled for them to closed the door she answer back that he could do it since it was his car .  After that she said and did something rude to my daughter and she drop her as a close friend.

Happy to say, I can't recall anyone just starring at me.  Maybe when I walk down the street the men  (some of them) starred, but I just keep walking.

Yes I have had many kids stare and at some point that is just strange and I often wonder why. I teach my son to not do that and many times I had to tell him to not pay attention to those who stare just smile and turn your head or say hi.

A young kid would be okay.  This kid was at least 11 or older.  Idk.  I guess it just hit me wrong.  I wasn't mean to him.  I just asked him if something was wrong.

Wow.  I think I would have told her in no uncertain terms to get her butt back over to the car and to close the door.  I would also probably tell her mother how she acted and inform her that until she could act like somebody she needed to stay at home.  Idk but what I would not have put her back in the car and took her straight back home.  Smh.

Kids learn from their parents.  I have had a couple of kids be really rude to me at work.  And if you talk to the parents long enough you figure out that they have taught their child well.

No I never ask, a lot of people kids and adults would stare at me all the time when I was out with my son because he was in a wheelchair and had a feeding tube, I knew why they were staring and I would just simply smile and if they asked what was wrong I would tell them. But that's just me.

I'm not like that.  Not any more anyway.  It is rude to stare.  And even more rude for someone to come up to you (someone that does not know you) and ask you what is wrong with your kid.  Most times I don't say anything.  But lately I am getting til I am more out spoken about things.  Or calling people on total BS.

You obviously don't have kids lol... All children are curious and asking what's wrong is no big deal... But you getting mad at a kid is really stupid... Who cares why the child looked at you... Maybe the kid thought you were attractive or maybe you had a noticeable stain on your shirt... I would be more offended by what adults do... Especially passive-aggressive ones that affect others in a negative manner with their double standard behavior

I did that before and my manager yelled at me. An older lady was staring at me when I was extremely pregnant and miserable. She was staring at me in disgust. I asked her if she ever saw a pregnant girl before. She went on some religious rant about how girls in high school have no morals. And was really upset when I told her I was actually 21 and engaged.
hood for you! Lol

Oh my a kid stared at you STOP THE PRESSES!  Maybe he never saw a life form like you before, maybe you had your hair out of place, maybe he was suspicious of you, who knows, who cares and naturally it goes without saying Like YOU NEVER stared at anyone in your entire life, right?  Wondering also what kind of job you have where kids have to look at you.  Have a great day at work lolol :highfive:

You never know what is going on with people, maybe he was really having a bad day and didn't feel like talking or maybe his parents told him to not talk to strangers,  he could of been upset about anything.
