Yeah, several attempts by the older person with the boys, and by Mrs. OP were ineffective. Only then did OP step in, and the "leave or I'll get a lifeguard" wasn't even his first step.They had an adult. OP didn't think that the adult (or his wife) was effective enough. So he escalated, then got mad when he wasn't vindicated.
No, it's giving them options, choices.Saying they are "done here" or else you will get a lifeguard to expel them is telling them to go,
is going down an enclosed slide three at a time and stopping yourselves inside the slide, something kids normally do at playgrounds?just don't see any evidence in your post that your daughter was actually in any serious danger, or that the kids were in fact acting much more dangerous than what kids often do at a kids playground
