Wow. What a loser. Seriously, this guy has an OQ (Obnoxiousness Quotient) over 200. Makes me wonder what he puts his family through.
Two things:
1. A guy I used to know always used to say "Consider the source" when our mutual boss would drive me bonkers. Her OQ was in the gifted range. He was right; she was a very unhappy person and most of the stuff she said came out of that. She had no power to hold either of us back in life (we were young people working at a diner for the summer) and so her nastiness had no real power. Neither does his. Nothing this guy can say will hold your son back from whatever his bright future holds for him. Remember, a lot of people can't handle bright kids. Maybe our kids make them feel like failures or something. I dunno.
2. If you get trapped in a conversation with him and he gets really obnoxious, just smile sweetly and tell him that finishing kindergarten was such a small achievement for your son, there was really no point in celebrating graduation anyway.

Woof.
