Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

Today at the Trader Joe's (LOVE!), I was in the parking lot finishing up a call with a friend when the car (a Mercedes) next to me swung its door open and boom.  The door hit the side of my car.  I was seriously annoyed.  I turned around to see who let that happen and it was a little girl.  She was probably around 7 or 8 years old and clearly the door was too heavy for her.  I got out of my car to say something but then her mom got out of their car.

She was finishing a phone call and clearly this woman is a queen bitch.  She was rude on the phone to the other person.  She was rude to her kids.  I felt sorry for her daughter and her younger sibling.  So I didn't say anything.  I imagined how the mom might have reacted if I had said something.  She probably would have been a total bitch to me or she would have been terrible to her daughter.  So I let sleeping dogs lie.

But, seriously.  I wonder why most of our car's dings and scrapes have to happen when I'm the one driving.  Urgh.  Probably because I drive more than Mark does but still!!  

But in this case, I let it go.  I prefer peace for me and peace for the little girl more than anything else.

What would you have done?  Let it go?  Said something?
