WTF???

[tencrush]

My child (Beckett, not Millie, obviously), was just grabbed in the back of the head by a random stranger and shoved to the pavement, where he hit his head, hard. Now I freely admit, Beckett is, at the moment, about as obnoxious as a three-year-old can possibly get, but still. NOT FUCKING COOL.

I've just spent two hours filing a police report and having photos taken of the huge, egg-shaped bruise on his head.

I REPEAT: NOT FUCKING COOL.

And the moment I get him home, he's still being obnoxious. :(

Holy shit. What on earth would make a person do something like that? A three-year-old, for heaven's sake.

Is he ok?

[tencrush]

Yeah, his father would say where there's no sense, there's no feeling.

He's been smacking his sister and kicking the cat, so no real change there.

Well, thank god for the resiliency of kids, and that he seems to be ok.

As for that stranger, I hope they catch him, the bastard.

Oh, they did, he didn't go anywhere, he shoved him, there was a big commotion from me and others who saw him do it. Some security guys came out of the various shops and stopped him going anywhere.

Like I said, Beckett WAS being obnoxious, he'd grabbed hold of some old guy's walker and was being rude, but he did let go when I told him off, but the guy who was with the old man still grabbed him and shoved him anyway. And I don't care how badly behaved my child is, keep your fucking hands off him.

And this is another one of those moments in which I ask myself how badly I want kids some day.

Fuckin' hell. That's ...

Fucking hell.

Glad he's OK.

[fahrbotdrusilla]

What the hell?

I hope he's alright.

:( That's crazy! I hope he's not got concussion or anything. Toddlers - particularly three year olds - are quite resilient though, I really hope he's OK!
