I agree with you and agree that what she said is inappropriate. Saying it to your own kids is one thing but saying it to a child who is not your own is another in my opinion. Even just a simple “I understand you are frustrated but sometimes life is frustrating”. It is virtually saying the same thing but in a more compassionate and professional way.
