[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FFS, walk up and talk to the kids - they're kids. just walk up and say "be careful sweetie, you might hurt someone." Since when do we call the cops on a 12 year old for being careless?[/quote] I wonder what reaction you'd get. Several months ago while waiting for the crossing light to change, I stood next to a girl of high school at the corner of Wisc and Albemarle and she was loudly speaking incredible filth to someone next to her. I gently reminded her that kids (my child and some others) were also standing there, and then she really launched into obscene invective spiced with some racial references as well. [/quote] That's when you loudly tell your children "Guys, see? This is why we need better social support for the mentally ill. Don't you feel bad for this person? Acting like an animal in public!" A little bit of public shaming goes a long way.[/quote]
