I was driving home today with my dc in the car. It's warm so the windows were down. Three kids on pedal bikes (maybe aged 13-15) threw rocks as I was driving one has left a small dent in my car (I didn't realise till I got home) and one went through the open window but just missed my dd in the back seat. I was at a round about so spun around the kids had stopped further along the street and I had a right bollocking at them.

I'm now at home and have calmed down. I'm starting to wondering if I over reacted? I was so angry at the time, they were not small rocks could have smashed the window, caused an accident and I think at the time I was just angry it nearly hit my daughter. I'm annoyed at the dent but lucky enough to have a friend who can fix it for me. Just wondering if I should gave just kept driving home.

You need to report to the police, were you in an area with CCTV?

ETA I haven't seen these kids before this happened maybe 5mins away from my home.

Seriously? The little shits threw rocks at you and could have caused an accident and you think you were being unreasonable? YWBU to not report to the police though.

Under-reacting. Report them to the police.

Not unreasonable at all, little shits. They're lucky they didn't hit your daughter or I'm sure you'd have quite rightly gone full mama bear.

I bollocked a group of teens in our local shopping centre who were kicking shit out of the little ride-in cars that are for hire.
An older guy said ‘wow, the security’s good in here’ 😂
