Called Unsociable 10 year old a fat c*nt

[Herefortea2]

Ok, am I the worst person ever??
Last week I was at marks and spencers and there was this boy there, about 11 who was riding around on a electric scooter, whizzing past people and behaving in a passive aggressive way. When I past him he loudly made throwing up noises several times right in front of me, to scare/shock me and I said oh are you ok, maybe you need a doctor (because I don't like to be initimdated by youths). Anyway I do the shop and keep thinking about him, I was in a bad mood already and he really annoyed me, I'm fed up of little shits thinking they can terrorise people.
Anyway I saw him again on the way out and again he was whizzing past scaring people. He came past me again and then I said it.....I said 'fat cnt'!!! Now I actually do not use that word, I don't like it, I don't like it when it's used around me either but I was so pissed off that that's what I said!!!! Anyway he circled round and was like what did you say....I ignored him and he started insulting me and following me as I walked to my car, saying is this your car you fucking bitch, cnt, etc etc. I walked away saying I'm calling the police! Then this guy comes over who's his dad! He apologies and says he's trying to get him home (the kid had been in the car park for half an hour at least, maybe longer), the kid tells the dad what I called him and the dad says 'no she didn't' then the kid goes off at the dad for taking a strangers side. The dad is completely useless as the kid is still circling me where I actually have to push him away from me! Eventually he leaves after a lot of verbal abuse, from the kid. Now I'm thinking I shouldn't have done it and feeling guilty and also worried that I can't go back to M&S because he might be there and start abusing me and I have 2 young children. Thoughts? I am going to hell?

So glad to see I’m not the only one tht found this hilarious

Actually, he totally deserved it.

He had thought acting the cunt on the scooter was OK. It was an arrogant display of power and what was anyone going to do about it. He needed to be brought down to size rapidly (pun not really intended).

Maybe I would have used Puffed Up Little Shit, rather than Fat Cunt, but either way both him and his useless Dad would know my opinion by the end of the conversation.

Good for you. So many are feral these days and people are becoming terrified of them, and for good reason. According to any press outlets the amount of youths carrying weapons is out of control, and society is doomed in my opinion. Obviously he must be ND, or have some sort of traumatic background. Or perhaps the most simple answer is the right one. He was a c**t. Don't know about the fat bit though!

This made me laugh - it’s up there with ‘I hope you like hospital food’. Oooooooh! The most middle class threat ever. Well ‘ard!

On a serious note though - YABU. You shouldn’t have said it.

Don’t beat yourself up. I don’t know if he was fat but he certainly sounds like a cunt.

Love that his dad didn’t believe him 😂

Fat cunt is a fair bit worse than feral little bastards in my humble opinion.

I get why people are saying ‘good for you’ because so often no-one says anything to kids behaving in an antisocial way. However, what has the OP achieved? Kids don’t behave better because strangers insult them. I’m sure the OP is not the devil and I think everyone has lost their temper at times but let’s not overstate this; blurting out an unpleasant insult at a child is not exactly a act of righteous protest.

I’d be pretty ashamed of myself I was you OP but it’s not the end of the world.

Not a word I’ve ever used tbf but in this case I don’t think modelling good behaviour would have made any difference to the horrible dc.
I wouldn’t ruminate on it op, and go to M&S, don’t let a nasty dc put you off.

Lol OP - not your finest moment but I'd just let it go and put it down to experience 🤣

I can honestly say I would not lose one wink of sleep over it. Well done OP

Pity you don’t put this passionate intensity to good use and raise your children not to intimidate women and make throwing up noises around them.

Because this little shit wasn’t targeting men.

Meh. You lost your temper. Not the best choice of language, but the country sure
needs more adults standing up to antisocial youths rather than backing away intimidated. Maybe he’ll think twice before trying to intimidate strangers in future.

Good for you op. Not sure why you posted as you would know you’d get flamed but he’s a little shit and his parents shouldn’t be letting him run riot in shops abusing the public. . He’ll be called far worse .

The feral little shit has already started to intimidate and abuse women at the age of 11. Call him what you want it won’t be bad enough. I wouldn’t personally use female anatomy as a term of abuse. Maybe use dickhead, cock, prick instead. He is already on the path to becoming an abuser of women, he’s not an innocent little kid.

Why did M & S not drag him out of there for using his scooter in the store. Don’t they have security in your town? Perhaps report to them that paying customers are being intimidated by youths on electric scooters in stores and the car park. You were unlikely to be the only one.

I don’t think anyone has claimed it was an act of righteous protest. But probably better than head down walking away intimidated which is the reaction these feral youths now expect from the majority of adults.

Kids don’t behave better because strangers insult them
If the criticism is earned, they probably do.

That's pretty vile that you've said that to a primary school child.
What the fuck is wrong with you?

Hahaha good on you, he absolutely sounds like a little cunt

So if you wouldn’t have beaten her up, what exactly would you have done to make sure “she wouldn’t dream of calling a child a cunt again”? Genuine question😂

Don’t lose any sleep over this OP, doubt the little shit will. The fact the dad didn’t believe him probably means he is probably exhausted with his son’s poor behaviour, this won’t have been the first time. I called a similarly aged child a fucking idiot after he swerved and drove his bike at speed in front of a van and then my car. By sheer luck both myself and the other driver avoided hitting the little imbecile who thought it was hilarious. I have no issue whatsoever calling kids like that out.

Having a hard life doesn’t mean kids can’t behave in a socially acceptable way and that we can excuse awful behaviours with no consequence. Whilst I’m not saying the OPs reaction was the best this kid was old enough to know what he was doing.

I am in tears reading these comments 😂 what a thread.

OP, of course you were wrong to call him that especially the fat part but we do have a problem in British society with out of control children in public spaces.

You’re not the worst person ever, you were maybe just stressed and fearful to an extent. It’s good that you’ve been able to reflect.

I despair of the future for kids like that though. And M&S should’ve done an announcement over the loudspeaker or approached him directly because he was creating an unsafe environment. It’s just a matter of time before he knocks into someone , who is visually impaired or a small kids or people with mobility problems etc

I don't know about anyone else but my small town M&S is full of frail old people who could be really hurt by an older child on a scooter. So well done OP for protecting the general public and getting the little shit out of M&S, a true anti-hero!

But he didn’t behave better, he insulted her back. She achieved nothing.

She didn’t get him out, he was already in the car park. She didn’t protect anyone from anything. I’m not saying she is a terrible person but her actions did not improve the situation for anybody.

Good for you. There are too many feral children about these days. They behave as they do because they have pathetic parents and hope that no one else will dare to say anything. Shame he didn't crash his stupid scooter. Oh and cunt is a very useful word.

Agreed. I used to work with children in care from aged 5-16 and not one would’ve behaved like this. Obviously they had all suffered significant trauma in their lives but we would never tolerate that behaviour if we took them on a day out and nor would their foster carers.
