    Yes it should be legal to kick kids's *kitten* when they act this way.

    THIS^^^ I would have had to say something. Some kids now days have no manners because they are not taught respect.
    Beating up people you don't care for is a great way to show you are a respectful person. :huh:

    Sadly, I've had my own nephew make a comment about me. I was lined up with my two sisters and Mom to take pictures (and truth be told, we had all put on weight, so not sure why I was singled out. I didn't even think myself that big. I mean I know I need to lose weight, but... ). And my nephew, trying to look cool in front of his friends that were over, said "daaaamn Aunt Holly is huuuuge".
    Me being super sensitive, started crying. Which made the situation even worse.

    Because resorting to violence is clearly the way to show them who is more mature... how about ignore it and realize that some people are simply not worthy of your time?

    right!

    How horrible. I know that feeling and it sucks. When I was pregnant with my daughter, I was not even at my heaviest. I was 270ish lbs and honestly, that is 35lbs smaller than my heaviest weight. Some kids on 4wheelers in my neighborhood were shouting things like "fat *kitten*" at me while they were riding by. I was livid and went knocking on their doors. Of course, nobody answered because their parents weren't home apparently. I was an angry/emotional preggo... I was fat, miserable, drove a freakin 2 door mustang and had to yank a 2year old in and out of the back seat anytime I went anywhere, it was 100+ degrees and humid out, and my husband was deployed. If I had gotten my hands on them, I may very well have gone to jail that day... LOL

    I am always teaching my children to respect other people and their feelings. I can only hope that my children grow to have more tact than some of the teens and adults I've encountered in my life. I like to think that I am teaching them to be respectable human beings. :smile:

    That's so horrible :-( I had my moments as a teenager, but I would never have been so rude about someone in the street.

    The other week on the train home, I heard this guy telling the man next to him he was too fat and taking up too much space and that he shouldn't sit down if he couldn't fit in one seat. I felt so bad for him I nearly started crying! It must have been so embarrassing for him as the train was really busy but it was quiet so everyone could hear what was going on.

    I do hope that if I'd been sat closer I would have said something (the people opposite them were just acting like nothing was happening) but I don't know if I really would have done.

    About a year ago, I was on a walk one day when a man who had one arm amputated above the elbow jogged by. Three houses up there was a pair of teenage girls sitting on their porch steps. One of them yelled "omg look at that stump." The other yelled "ewww put a shirt on you monster." He had ear buds in, so I hope he didn't hear them. I stopped and had a few choice words with their mom, but I doubt it did anything.

    (apropos of nothing, I actually met the man a few weeks back through work. He's a sweet, intelligent college professor. Very nice guy.)

    WTH... I seriously hope that my children don't turn into "those kids" as teenagers. As of now, my children have no issue playing with or being around people with disabilities or who are different. They do ask (because they are only 3 and 6) why... and I always tell them because God made everyone different and that's why we are all beautiful.

    Violence in exchange for rudeness from children. Really? And what should we do to the adults who behave this way? Set them on fire?

    Sadly, this is all too common and not just with kids.
    I went to a farmer's market a couple of years ago when I was working on losing weight; I had lost almost 30 pounds and was feeling better. I decided to buy some good fresh fruits and veggies. Well, I was standing and waiting and one of the men who was working the stand went to help someone who got there way after me and turned to his co-worker and said (in Spanish), "It's ok, let the fat girl wait." I kept myself together until I got in the car. Once there, I lost it and gave up on my weight loss for almost 2 years.

    When I was younger (about 13 ish) I was at a grocery store with my mom (who is 7 inches taller than me and has always been thin). She mentioned she was cold (she was always cold) and I said that it wasn't really that cold in there. The cashier turned to me and said, "Of course you're not cold, you've got enough insulation on you to keep you plenty warm." Thinking of this experience still makes me almost cry. My mom didn't say anything while we were in the store, but later told me the lady was rude and shouldn't have said that. It didn't solve the hurt feelings. Oh, and by the way, I wasn't that overweight when I was younger!

    I wish people would think before speaking.

    Oh and just a few months back, I had the Target fitting room attendant (who was not a small girl herself) make a derogatory comment about me buying some jeans.
    I forgot exactly what she said but it basically was being surprised I could fit into the jeans (which I could).
    I, being a non-confrontational person, tried to act like I didn't get what she was trying to say. When I should've questioned what exactly she meant by that.

    I am that lady...i am someone who is abused by groups of skinny little teenage ****bags on a regular basis. I hate these kids, their rudeness stays with a person forever, trust me. I remember incidents from years ago like this...and those kids don't remember i was even in their presence...but i remember their faces and words and the way it made me feel...i believe in karma so i hope life has got them back for hurting me...every last one.

    Karma needed to kick there kids butt...I was seriously ticked off about it...

    I can't stand people like that. Years ago, I was outside watering my garden (in grubby clothes, looking pretty gross, I'll admit) and two teenage boys were walking on the sidewalk. One said to the other "There's a girl for you!" and the other responded "Ugh, no thanks!"

    I sprayed them with the hose.

    I suppose if they'd have shown a little more restraint, I would too. I don't put up with BS like that and neither should anyone else.

    LMAO GOOD FOR YOU!!

    As much of a loudmouth as I am, I simply loudly stated they were rude...there were others around, including my kids. I wanted to kick the punks butt, but there were 4 of them and 1 of me...lol....and I guess I'm supposed to act like an adult now. :) Believe me, I bit my tongue big time.

    Lucky you, my Dad wouldn't bother taking me out back, lol.

    Mob mentality too. One kid on his own might not have said anything, but you get a group of kids (and adults too, sadly) and they'll egg each other on being bold and showing off. It's appalling what normally good people will turn into.

    It's a shame. First that children feel free to talk this way in the open, and second that no one caught it on video and posted it on You Tube. Should anyone witness my children doing the same as these kids did, PLEASE LET ME KNOW! What I've been trying to model and teach them hasn't sunk in yet.

    ugh... a week after having my first daughter, these *kitten* said i was a fat *****!! I was getting her out of the seat in the back of the car to go into a store, so i was kind of bent over. My husband was like .. oh ****... i looked at him, he knew to come over and get the baby out of the car, i walked up to those little *kitten*, told them off big time. They felt like crap when they saw I had a newborn, rightfully so. I hope I got through to them!

    When I was 285 pounds, I walking down a sidewalk at a strip mall and three kids between the ages of about 7 and 12 were walking along behind me oinking and mooing. I honestly wanted to turn around and slap the snot out of them.
