On my phone and English is not my first language.

I’m a father of 4 kids ranging from 23 to 6 years old. The other day we were all at a restaurant and there was a family with 3 kids (I’d say from 10 to 6yo) running around, yelling and basically making a mess.

At one time, one of those kids came to our table and took a piece of bread. Before me or my wife could say anything the mom yelled at the kid to put it back. She then turned to me and said “Kids eh! They’re all the same!” with an apologetic smile.

Before I could think I blurted “Certainly not! Mine are well behaved!”

I get that it was not very polite but she took it as if I just had spit in her face and began yelling at me. 10 minutes later they were out of the door.

My wife thinks that comment was a AH comment, I think I just answered her affirmation by providing a counter-example…

What do you think?
