Called Unsociable 10 year old a fat c*nt

Honestly, this made me laugh. Was it your finest hour? No! BUT I'm in no position to judge as I can imagining me thinking it and muttering it as well 😆

You do know you’ve traumatised your poor baby for life now. Another one on a scooter in M & S in 11 years time……

😁😁 picky bits. Just when I thought I couldn’t laugh any more.

Use her hurty words? 😁

I missed your last post to me when I had intended to reply, thanks for explaining. 😊

All these people saying calling him a fat cunt would cause him trauma, you really need to get a grip! It sounds like he’s acted like a little shit for too long! The fact he even knows about the word cunt at ten/eleven says a lot about him! I don’t know many ten/eleven year olds that know that word!

I’ve asked and don’t think @wobblyewobbly has replied. Apparently there would be no violence involved so I’m intrigued!

Anyway. I reckon the dad did believe the boy but didn’t remonstrate with the OP as he also thinks his son is a bit of a cunt

But why? What would do?

Meh.
As someone who lives in an area where teenagers are currently running around doing whatever they want and getting away with it, I can’t get worked up about this.
act like a cunt, get called a cunt.

a few years ago I was driving along a residential road, minding my own business. Had my car window down. Drove past a group of girls who felt the need to start giving it the big one and began shouting out at me. So, I stopped the car, did a neat little 3 point turn, drove back to them and said ‘sorry, didn’t catch that, what were you saying?’
turns out it was nothing, they weren’t saying anything at all, nope, defo not. To which I replied ‘yeah, thought not’ and carried on.
the 3 point turn to get back the way I was going killed the vibe a bit, but other than that - I like to think that they learnt that actually, not everyone is just going to accept and ignore shit behaviour. And in the grand scheme of things, there are going to be people who react very differently from the mild way I did.

Are we going to find out how @wobblyewobbly would stop an adult entering Marks?

I always wonder what the ‘I would of punched him’ brigade actually do in real
life. Do they behave like Neanderthals, unaware where their actions could lead, or are they just trying to look ‘tough’.

Ooo you're hard.

OP don't worry about it. I'm sick of dealing with adults, on a daily basis, who were clearly never called a fat cunt or parented correctly. It's draining living in a society of people who have never been told 'no', who have an entitled shitty attitude or are just plain rude and obnoxious. I think we need much less tolerance of kids who behave like this and of their crap parents.

Have you actually READ my post? Do you have a problem with comprehension? And calm down.

Dear oh dear...

Yea. Faaam and all that. Gave them kids everything , well ,just not, the vape money or the cheeky takeaway money. But you gets my point

You should have approached a member of staff and explained the situation, who in turn would have called security over to have words with the child. The child shouldn't have been riding a scooter in M&S, and the Dad should have been parenting his child. However, none of that excuses your own behaviour, which was worse than the child's. Yes, he was being annoying, but he wasn't verbally abusing you or threatening you in any way. You, verbally abused a child though, and used dreadful language towards him. Being the adult you should have known better, and restrained yourself.

Because no cunt will call her cunt a fat cunt.

He’d know who the adult was if approached by the store security.

In any case, name calling and not owning up isn’t showing him who the adult is: it’s showing him the other child.

Sorry, that's made me laugh much more than it should've done

The Hard as Mutha (who exerts her prowess on mumsnet btw). She’d have a wurd with the other crims they’d sort this out,in her HMP absence. Good & proper too.
Because she’d do anything for her kids

If what the OP says about the childs’ behaviour in the shop, and the escalation in both language and behaviour as he followed her to her car is true, then l think the ‘labelling’ is probably justified. It’s posts like these that go some way to explaining why kids are so badly behaved these days. The OP was out of order to say what she did, but the kid didn’t seem in the least bit traumatised and the father was clearly having trouble controlling him. But yeah, let’s jump straight to empathy in case he has ‘trauma’ instead of actual discipline and showing him who the adult is.

Don’t dwell on it oP.

Your behaviour was at least spur of the moment frustration - unlike many of the pp revelling in cold blood.

But yes, next time ask him politely to stop. It’s amazing how many children actually respond positively to courtesy. And if not, get the store security involved. They are trained to handle these things.

I know someone who posts stuff like this EVERYDAY. Now it’s constant posts about mothers of autistic kids. She then kicks off every day in the school yard “I’m not happy about this, I give everything to my kids”

Except your vape money love

Why have the taken the laughing response away! I can’t figure out how to do emojis either. But yes, it does come out in the wrong situations at times. I never mean to patronise anyone, I’m always so focused on phrasing things diplomatically because if I get it wrong I’ll have parents complaining. I do recognise that I addressed the OP like a child, which is embarrassing in hindsight. I just need to make it to the end of term and hopefully I’ll return to normal human state.

Can’t trust no one these days. Just me and my little family from now on. Xxxxxx 👬💖

Followed by 18 comments from people with “too true hun!”, “you have a lovely family, your a great mummy to them boys.”

Of course YABU

yea he was an annoying little shite but calling him a fat cunt has lowered you all the way down to his level. You don’t go around calling children fat cunts even if they are absolute gob shites.
