  • Entitled dad tries to demand I let his daughter play on my switch
  • I (23M) had a doctor's appointment earlier today and I took my Switch because I knew I'd be waiting for a while.
  • So I was sitting in the waiting room and after a while a dad with a little girl (probably 5/6yrs old) walk in and sit on a couch across the room.
  • A few minutes pass and the little girl gets up and sits on the armchair next to the one I'm sitting, and starts leaning over to watch my game.
  • I was fine with that because she wasn't doing anything at first, she was just watching, though I thought it was kinda weird that the dad didn't do anything and just let his daughter sit next to a random guy.
  • Anyway I didn't do anything I just kept playing and let her watch.

  • But then she reached out and tried to grab my Switch so I pulled away and looked at the dad and he was just watching like nothing happened.
  • Im pretty shy so interacting with people in awkward scenarios like that is a challenge, but I called him and said "hey, your daughter just tried to grab my game, can you ask her to not do that please?".
  • And his response was just... "let her play, what's the problem?".
  • I let my gf's brother play with my stuff all the time but I don't know this kid and given her attitude I couldn't trust that she wouldn't break it or something like that.
  • So I said "no, she can watch but not play." And bro got mad and said something in the lines of "I should let her play because she's bored and I'm a grown man and she's a little kid
  • so I should let her have it".
  • I just said no again and moved to a different seat and kept ignoring them until the doctor called me in.
  • Bruh. I thought people like this were internet skits.
  • Excellent_Ad1132. A response to this is "How is it my job to entertain your child. You should have brought something for her to do. You can't make your problem, mine."
  • oXSirMaverickXo Yeah, this happens. They get pretty bold, too. I had a very weird encounter with a father and his teenage daughter in a coffee shop. It wasn't even a handheld. It was a Lenovo laptop, I was editing pictures.
  • RandoBoomer ⚫ A woman approached my great-nephew (aged 5) telling him he "needed to share" his switch her kid. Didn't even ask my nephew - went straight to the kid.
  • Snoo58504. Tell him his job is to keep his kids occupied not your. His lack of preparation is not your problem.
  • kasiagabrielle "She's bored? , one of her parents should entertain her."
