So this is my first AIBU and I am 39 weeks pregnant, please be gentle.
I was in Sainsburys yesterday when a little girl (maybe 3ish) came charging up the aisle from the tills and ran headlong into me and my basket. She was looking right at me and I didn't have time to move (without the aid of a crane)
She may have shocked herself a little bit when she caught the basket and I was about to check she was OK when she punched me in the leg, hard enough to leave a mark.
Luckily at this point her mother decided to intervene (she had been watching from the till) and sauntered towards us saying 'oh Tasmin' in a most disappointed voice.
That was it. No apology to me, no discipline at all for the child.
Please tell me I am not being unreasonable to think this is just not OK at all. I didn't need the child to be burned at the stake but some acknowledgement that the behaviour was wrong and some sort of apology may have prevented me having to have a good cry and some cakes before I was able to drive home.
