Abusive Kids In The Park Today ....

Why? At what moment does the "blame" start leaning towards the kids?

I would say, in this situation, that these kids are old enough and wise enough to know they are in the wrong but they just don't care. Unfortunately the OP had to walk away (no real choice) making these neds think that they CAN do whatever they want and if someone doesn't like it then tough.... Self entitlement here we come :rolleyes:

Do you actually think that innocent children are born with a vile mouth??

It comes from A The home and parents, B school.

The parents should know exactly what their kids are up to, where they are etc, this is the problem with society.

Why would a parent take it as anything but a compliment? Unless they were jumping to the conclusion that the photographer was a pedo? (which is statistically highly unlikely).

I don't have kids, but if I did and someone threatened to slap them and then took a picture of them, I would probably throw them into the Sun.

Not in public they don't.

I suppose the average "crowd shot" in a magazine/newspaper/TV show has everyones permission to be published?

I always thought they had to have some sort of lincese.

Haha! :o You're supposed to take it as a compliment.
 
There behavior was wrong in every way.

However at school etc they will hear this language and probably worse.

Use this as an education exercise that there are chavs, scums and pathetic low lives who are not clever or will achieve anything other than knock a kid out to a unknown father (the story the benefits and council will get). They will probably get a council flat and the absent father will move back in and they will smoke dope into their 30's whilst sleeping with dozens of other low life's and then get their fame on Jeremy Kyle.

Today i took my 2 little daughters, 7 & 8, down to my local park. The little ones jumped straight onto the swings and all was good. A few minutes later two 'bigger' girls (aged 12ish) appeared and started playing on another piece of playground equipment just behind us. Their language however was something else. It was 'f' this and 'f' that. I shouted over for them to stop swearing and all i got back from them was that 'i'm not their dad and they do anything they want'. The swearing got louder and the language got worse so in my wisdom i told them if they didn't stop they'd get a 'slap'. Yes i know it was the wrong thing to say! I then told them i knew which school they went to (i don't!) and i'd tell their teachers tomorrow. Again they shouted back obscenities so i got my One X out and took a photo of them and said i'd show this photo to their teacher. They ran away.

All i was trying to do was try and protect my little one's ears from all the swearing. I'm thinking of putting the photo of the abusive girls up on twitter , linking it to the Sunderland page, just to try and name and shame them.

Would anyone else have said anything if they were in my shoes?

You take them out in public, let them go out by themselves or even go to school you take the risk they're going to be exposed to things you don't want them to be. All you need to do though is to teach them that it's bad language and it's frowned upon.

Your actions towards two kids that aren't your own is out of place though, you have no right to say anything to anyone else.

That's not what I said. Kids get to an age where, irrespective of their upbringing, they know what is acceptable behaviour and what is not. I certainly knew well before I was 12 that swearing was not acceptable. My dad swore quite often but I still knew.

I ask again - at what age does this "blame" start lying with the kids involved?

Ah ok, lets just let anyone say whatever they want to anyone else and have no repercussions then....

No, I would not react because I'm not an idiot. Why should I care what someone else is saying or doing?

The only time I'd say it's right for you to step in and create a situation between you and strangers is when someone is being physically hurt.


EDIT: Just to add, serious threats are also something that should warrant a reaction.

I had to read the OP twice to make sure I understood it:

You threatened to slap a pair of 12-year old girls, then you took a photo of them, and you were thinking of putting it on the internet to "name and shame" them - for using language that you didn't like? :confused:

I really have to wonder how some peoples minds work sometimes... That's just plain crazy.

Overreacting, but not crazy. I can understand the principle, but not the method.
 
Threatening to hit a couple of young girls is far more damaging to your children then them hearing some swear words :rolleyes:
You couldn't have possibly handled the situation any worse 10/10
