to want to chop the fingers off the little shite that stole my ds' bag?

[helsbels4]

Ds is in yr4 and this week put his bag down on the school field whilst him and his friends messed around played their usual after-school game. Ten/fifteen minutes later, he went to get his bag but it wasn't there. Cue much ranting from me for being so careless and stating that he would be replacing the contents - about £40 worth of stuff out of his own money.

The next day he had to have school dinners (because his lunch-box was in the missing bag) and when he went to collect his money from the class pot, it had vanished.

Well.....to cut a very long story short, it turns out that another child claims he "found" the bag where my ds said he left it but it was empty x 100!!!!!! This child produced the bag but minus the entire contents - school jumper, wet-weather coat, lunch-box, drink bottle, wallet etc etc. He said it was empty when he found it!

This child was given 24hrs to return the contents but hey-presto, he wasn't in school today!

I am absolutely fuming that this little shite has got his filthy, thieving hands on ds' stuff with no real prospect of getting it back.

The school say they are dealing with it but at the mo, that means writing to the mother - big deal. I want to chop his thieving little fingers off so he can't do it again. (ok, dh said that's a bit extreme) but what else can I do??????

Aibu to want to do something very unreasonabe to this little shitester because I am so angry?!

DS1 was bullied for 4 years by a little shit at school from a sub class family, kid got away with it over and over, when he went to high school some year 10 boys beat the shit out of him, oh how I laughed, but if the primary school had dealt better with him he might not have thought he could still get away with it in high school.

I had him arrested, and his dad and his dads half brother, (not that it was the first time they had seen the inside of a police cell nor I doubt the last) some people are just beyond all hope

Oh blimey, I don't know what to do now. You know, we're just a normal, hard-working family who want to bring our children up nicely and live a quiet life. We work hard for what we have and like a lot of people, are struggling right now - hence why I'm so angry because we can't afford to replace everything in one go right now and then some one with no morals or sense of decency comes along and makes everything that little bit harder.
I've told the school I will wait as they want me to until the boy returns to school (tbh, if he didn't ever come back again would suit me!) and see if he has found any sense of decency, so I can't go back on that yet but I don't hold out much hope of getting a satisfactory conclusion. The head is lovely but not the scary type of head that this child needs to come up against sadly.

You're exactly right, Kimi. So many of them (the sub class, as you put it, which I think is a good description) need to be dealt with in a much, much harsher way than they currently are. They aren't scared of their parents, their teachers or the law.

I say chop em off

then eat em
