Has anyone seen the newest UK myth 'Schoolboy9' ?? My child wants to dress up as them for halloween

My child showed me a video on tik tok about this unusual man named schoolboy9, and he is a british MAN who dresses up like a Schoolboy, and preys on young children on the internet. Apparently the police are after him, and he has a long criminal history of chasing people and dressing up all pale and like schoolboy!!!!! My child kept singing me a song and it is freaking me out. He now claims that he wants to dress up like smartboy9 for halloween and needs white facepaint and his school clothes. I told him strictly no and prohibited him from this and told him to go dress up as a Super Hero instead of this creepy predator. Am i being unreasonable

The football game was a myth. Not to disimilar to the OP.

Please don't get your 13 year old to dress as a a super hero unless it's done very ironically. Youl ruin his cred.

Wtf

Gilbertie's brother?

Chickychoccyegg · 18/09/2024 22:12

I read that he's not really wanted by the police, this is just the content for his videos, everyone involved is aware / it's not real, and has became a bit of a "trend"
If its true and its just "pretend" it's fine for him to dress as this (nice easy costume either way which is handy)

No it isn't.

My Great Grandad was there, played on the left wing, scored an incredible hat-trick and was awarded Man of the Match.

Agreed, not a myth.

Wtf is happening to Mumsnet?

BiscuitlyBoyle · 18/09/2024 22:20

Why is your 13 year old watching shit like that online? Isn’t he also a little old for trick or treating?
