I Have a Question

If kids in your area are giving your kids a hard time not just in street even at school calling names fretening our kids because other kids telling other kids lies and other day a kid started calling my son names he told them to shut up and they threw a stone at window cracking it we called police was we right to report it or is it over reacting.

We'd all like to think we live in a world of live and let live.
Boys will be boys, and all that !
Unfortunately, we don't !
We are watching a generation of kids being brought up on a diet of low ability parenting; any garbage you can imagine in terms of media; and lack of will from either parents; extended family; school; community etc to challenge poor behaviour.
Of course, none of this is the fault of a wayward nine year old mouthing off at folk in the street. But there's no doubt that same nine year old and his parents need putting in a room and telling how badly behaved and disrespectful they are.

No.. Make a record of these accounts.

You did well.

Trust me on this one.

Parents should also pay for damages. All of them and fix that brat of theirs.

Kids will always be kids. People will always be people. I think it's important kids learn to stand up for themselves fast, because if not, these things can happen! People can be horrible

@Sueann30: Maybe you should have spoken to their parents first and made a more thought about decision afterwards, but what's done is now done I'm afraid

We wasn't sure who other children's parents was we knew one parent had a word but didn't seem very bothered and said you called police and laughed and there kids gloating and smug I didn't call police my sister did

Yes, you're right for calling the police. If they're harassing your children and they threw a stone and caused property damage, it should be reported. Idk how old these kids were but that's a misdemeanor. Their parents should pay for the property damage by getting you a new window
