Maybe I'm overreacting? I dunno.
Just took my 2 kiddies down to see Josie and Denver. They are in the bottom field so have to walk through the main field to get to them.
When we got down, I saw my friend, the kids chatted to her for a bit, then we went to see 'Big n Little'. Had to walk through main field had approx 3/4 horses in it. No probs.
Once we had finished. We walked up, had to come through same field. To find my friend had got the mares in to put her horse out. (cant go out with main group). We have no choice but to walk through this field so off we go. Got half way through friends horse flattens his ear and CHASES my kids all the up the field. I threw things, shouted, scream at him. No he was getting those kids!!! I was soooo scared! So were my poor kids, the eldest only just having got over his huge fear of horses (good old josie and her hugs can turn anyone around).
I eventually make it up through the yard and collect distraught kids. Saw friend she asks why all the noise. I tell her her horse has chased my kids through the field. She then, get this...... says 'erm can you keep it down or he wont be alowed out again!!!!!'
No 'sorry', 'oh are they ok?' Anything like that! How I kept my composure I do not know. Good job i had to focus on the kids! She knew we were down in our field, and knew it was the only way up.
I just shouted a 'oh remind me never to bring the kids down if he's out' remark and left it.
Now I know horses are animals and to be fair he ahs every right to take a disliking to whoever he choses. However it's the attitude of so called best friend that got me. Basically shut up!!!
Oooo rant over, sorry. But, am I right to feeling like this, or am I overreacting?
