Today, I was out grocery shopping when some pervert decided to slap my ass as they walked by. As I turned around to confront them, I saw that the culprit was a 7 or 8-year-old boy. I was so shocked, speechless and angry that I couldn't even decide how to handle the situation. FML

Tell their parent?
Or if they were alone tell them it's not okay to touch someone without their permission.
Not that this advice is useful now, yknow but just in case it happens again.

#28, it might be that he just thinks butts are funny. Lots of little kids do. Or he might even be doing it BECAUSE his parents told him not to and he's a little shit. It just seems more likely to me that he's misbehaved instead of misbehaved AND perverted. At least I hope that's the case.

I've heard of boys that young even catcalling women, they see people around them doing it. In the case I remember, their father was driving a car he was hanging out of, driving slowly and cheering them on.

Better yet, become the step parent, by any means necessary, and then you can reprimand them all you want...

I feel like since he is so young he probably associates it with humorous punishment rather than a sexual thing, not that it makes it less wrong. But my four and five year old cousins threaten 'I'll smack you on the bum! *cue giggles* if they perceive you to have been naughty, and it's just a massive joke to them. Chances are the kid doesn't quite get who is appropriate to have jokes like that with

Lime you won with any man? Best to weed out this behaviour at a young age. A slap on the hand would have been justified, especially if the kid was alone.

I don't think hitting (even a little tap) is the cure to the kid hitting her.
Not to mention their parent would probably be pretty angry about that.

Yes, #4, lime won against its human opponent. It was a glorious victory and a huge step forward for limekind.

I dont know where you are from.. but where i live in the USA hitting someone elses kid will likely end in a fight and jail. best keep your hands to yourself and speak with the parent or store employee/manager if a parent isnt available

I think in most countries any parent would flip shit if someone else, especially a stranger, touches their child.

Hitting someone else's kid is definitely a Good way to wind up in the hospital or in jail.

Agreed, don't listen to all the sensitive self-proclaimed know-it-alls saying that a little slap here and there is never OK. It's most likely why they're self-entitled brats commenting here in the first place. Though hitting someone else's kid isn't a good idea. So you are wrong in this case :P. You're own kid, for sure.

I would've reprimanded him, regardless of age. It's better than him doing it to women later in life when he is older. No one, regardless of sex, should be sexually harassed. No one, regardless of age, should perpetuate any harassment.

Well said #5. I completely agree. Someone is not being trained properly. It's never right to do that to a stranger.

@58: #26 was correcting "No-one, regardless of age," and replaced just "age" with "age or sex". I agree with this correction and don't know why it was downvoted.

You should have told him that it's not okay to do that. Just because he was young that doesn't mean you just shouldn't do anything. You should have told his parents or told him if his parents weren't there

You slap him really hard up the side of his head with the back of your hand he won't do it again.

Slapping an unknown 8 year old child might not be the best idea.... especially in public.

TBH I probably would have smacked him upside the head just out of sheer reflex, same as I would if I had caught my own kid doing something that outrageous.
And then I'd probably be charged with assaulting a kid... :(

There will always be those people that think the best way to "discipline" a child is to hit them into a coma. It doesn't make them respect you, it makes them fear and resent you. By the way, would you seriously hit an unknown 7 year old in the middle of a public place?

or toss his ass into all the fruit thats all nicely placed and stacked.
make that little motherfucker remember you
jk..LOL but fr. If that kids parents were there and some random adult hit him im sure the parent would go do worse than a little tap on the ass. hitting strangers kids is never a good idea. especially if the kid was that bold imagine how bold his parents are

@39 Are you seriously saying that anyone here implied that the child should be put into a coma? What exactly is wrong with you that you would immediately jump to that conclusion?
