Yes, none of us want to reward bad behavior. The idea is though, in my opinion, is to kindly tell them they are being rude and that you will not stand around if they continue to treat you this way.
Being kind doesn't necessarily mean you have to let people walk all over you, it just means you won't return insult with more insult.
agree & well stated!
