took my kids to a park we like today - it's a bit if a drive but lovely and the equipment is nicely accessible for Dd(6) who has a physical disability. When we got there there was some marching band contest, we watched for a minute but dd and DS (2) just wanted the park so we went over.
There were hoards of marching band kids ranging from 8/9 up to mid-late teens in the play park. Their behaviour was DISGUSTING. Spitting, throwing litter, older ones sat smoking on the play equipment, and all of them swearing their heads off. Now, I fucking live a good swear, but not in front if toddlers every third word. While I was watching DS (planning on getting the he'll out) dd went up to the teenage girls monopolising the basket swing and asked nicely if she could have a go. One responded "she can fuck off, I'M fucking on it!" but before I could get over there one of them lifted her on. They proceeded to mock her, try to push her off, and trample on her. I grabbed DS, retrieved her, and we left.
I did complain to a contest official as we were leaving but I was still fuming when we got home so tracked down the website of the band mist if them were in (they were in logoed t shirts) and emailed them, telling them what had happened and how appalled I was.
Unreasonable?
