You certainly did the right thing girl!
Hurrah for standing up for yourself. You handled it with dignity and respect, kudos to you.
If that man is a nutter, well, it’s not like it’s your fault.
And your son sounds really well behaved.

I think you had every right to say that to the old man. He should have appreciated that you told your son to quiet down and you apologized. It’s good you stood up for yourself.

If that’s all that happened then you definitely had the right to say what you did. Go you!

You definetly did the right thing. kids will be kids.
Maybe the gentleman was having a bad day, but that does not give him the right to take it out on you and that nice little boy of yours. You handled it well.B)
P.S. You just don’t push a mama bear too far about her cubs.:laugh:
