I don't think it's necessarily easy to ask people to leave, but I would have done just that. Why in the world do we worry about the perception of rudeness in response to rudeness? I believe we have the right and responsibility to be respectful of ourselves and each other. It is not "rude" of me to let another person know that their behavior is unacceptable in my own home, and I don't feel bad about that. Whatever is chosen in this instance doesn't really matter as long as it is what feels right for the "poster". I hope you can have the conversation, be it by phone, email, etc., so you feel ok about the outcome. What I or anyone else would or wouldn't do doesn't really matter, although it feels good, and is important to talk about. Juliet |
