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?

Fair point, I take it back 😂

Although I would argue with "unsociable". He is ANTI social.

And a cunt.

If this is the way the boy acts, then sadly, you calling him a fat cunt isn't going to be the worst consequence. For him it will, unfortunately, not be a big thing either way - he he has far bigger problems in his future.

I wouldn't beat yourself up OP.

In years to come there’ll be a poster on mumsnet feeling shit because she’s feeling trapped with a cunt. No excuses will be made for that cunt then.

I quite agree, todays cunt is tomorrows abuser.

Well it does sound as if the cap fits

Where is the justice that we lose the 😂 emoji and then this gift of a thread appears?! Absolute bravo work. Best thread I’ve read in ages. 10/10. No notes 🤣

The machete story made me laugh out loud. I’m probably going to hell too.

Hmmm! I can’t decide.

On one hand I’d be fuming if you calle any child that, however there is no way I would let my child act like that in the first place.

Secondly, in your shoes I’d do the same. It’s also my favourite swear word as most people are offended by it!!

Try not to let it get to you. It was a shitty situation with an annoying arse hole of a child.

It’s mine too. Along with bollocks, which has a nice rounded sound to it.

However, the smileys are now there for everyone to see, so there is that!

I don't think what you did was too bad. The boy is well old enough to know that his behaviour is highly antisocial and you gave him a taste of his own medicine. He behaved like a cunt, he got called a cunt.

The worst thing about it (and this really is outing, so if anyone recognises this then yes, we live in the same place!) is that the Air Ambulance was used to get him to the nearest specialist centre to deal with his injuries.

How many thousands did that cost?! Little fucker decides to emulate his piece of shit father and try to be the hard man, hurts himself in the process and thousands of pounds raised by the charity are used to get him to hospital. I wish I could tell you his nickname but that would be identifying to the kid concerned and, ironically, I would be the one in trouble. But lets just say that it is a word commonly used to describe someone not blessed with brains, although I have been told he used it because it proved he was hard!

Don’t worry, it’s only if you or your partner have a ‘hobby’ that it’s outing. ☺️

I’m sorry but I think you reaction was justified. I doubt the little toe rag went home sobbing into his pillow. It’ll be water off a ducks back to him. In hindsight, you could have handled the situation better by finding a M&S staff member or security guard but more people need to stand up to these teens and put them in their place.

I think it makes it even worse if he was.

OP you stooped to his level - and actually you flung the insults first.

Oooh braggy post!! My proudest moment was teaching a Peruvian friend to say "bollocks" with the right emphasis and at the right time. She was living in the UK at the time and asked me what it meant as she heard it all the time. Taught her all the meanings and now its her favourite word. She says the best thing is that no one understands her! She is now living in a different S.American country and its her go to swear because everyone understands "fuck" but only the Brits understand "bollocks"!

kid deserved it. was being a cunt so gets called one 👌

Oh thats a relief! 😂

I wouldn’t have called him that but I probably would have said go away little shithead which is a little nicer

Hah! Your lovely friend can now call out any brat and get away with it (unless she comes across a few mumsnetters).

Yes, it definitely does have to have the emphasis in just the right places!

Play stupid games win stupid prizes. I think Ricky Gervais would be proud of you. That kid could have continued to intimidate people. Imagine if it was someone elderly he was frightening. Good for you for not taking that cr*p. Hopefully he’s learned a lesson.

She is the most amazing woman. And she learned English as a second language, but she is so funny and sarcastic! Her sense of humour is definitely more UK than S.Am, she says that herself! I would love to hear her in her first language!

Oh shut up, learn to parent your own kid. Don’t raise feral kids like this to begin with who terrorise people at shopping centres.

You should have accidentally bumped the wheel of his scooter with your trolley for good measure 🤣
