[blparent] coming to my defense

[Pickrell, Rebecca M (IS)]

Sounds like you've got two people with no social skills. Hint, V and Gag
aren't them. 
Is anybody surprised?

That's why I was so surprised that they did not come talk to me at the
bustop yesterday morning.  I would have made Gab apologize in person.
Did I tell you the grandmother sent me a text and said her 9 year old
granddaughter would not do that intentionally again. V

Some people need to teach their children propperly.  If I had been a
sighted

parent or grandparent, and i heard that my daughter or granddaughter
said something like that, she would have gotten a good talking to, if
not more, and I would have personally taken her to the person in
question and made her

apologize.
