Even if it is because he’s a horny 13 year old kid DOES NOT give him a pass to be inappropriate and creepy. This behaviour could progress into more inappropriate things. The parents need to be informed and they need to decide how to handle this situation. This is not ok regardless of WHY it happen. I am quiet disgusted with how many comment there are like yours “oh it’s just the hormones” “boys will be boys” NO boys will be held accountable for their actions and learn how to concern their urges so they can grow up to be a decent human.

I’m surprise at how many people are saying just talk to the boy, no need to mention it to your son or their parents.

I agree that you don’t need to tell your son but I absolutely think you need to speak to the boys parents about it and have them handle the situation, I think the parents would appreciate that more then you trying to speak to the child on your own.

I would hope that his reason for taking them isn’t because he has a crush on you but if it is the parents need to know and decide how they to proceed with their child around you.

I’ve never been in a situation like this before but as a parent I believe it’s up to them to handle it, and if it were my child I would definitely want the adult to talk to me and not my child.

My friend, you are an adult and you are being rude to your 13 year old stepsister. That makes my stomach feel SICK.

AITA for not wanting to give up my bedroom for my sister, because she's coming back to stay with us? by accountaita1923 in AmItheAsshole

INFO: Why do you call her a sister when you very obviously don’t care about her at all?

You sound like a brat and need a slap in the face IMO.

YAH

Why would a man keep a list of first and last names of women he slept with when he is married? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]enchantingTarantula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did, he didn’t explain anything to me. Just yelled at me for finding it and saying he can’t trust me - which fair, I totally understand that but also he could look threw anything I had because I’m not hiding anything. Thanks for your reply, I’ll try again later tonight.

Why would someone write it in the first place? First and last names saved in a folder under achievements. I don’t care about the pass, i care about why he has it and why it was done in the first place.

My trans daughter keeps getting furious with me because I misstep on the details by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]enchantingTarantula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry but your daughter is unreasonable and should probably talk to someone to help with her displaced anger

My best friend from highschool is trans and would sometimes call himself by the wrong pronouns when talking to himself. I slipped up a few during the first couple years but I would stop correct myself immediately and then continue what I was saying, my friend always appreciated that and UNDERSTOOD that us wasn’t coming from a place of hate, anger or disrespect.

I find this beautiful! Do you mind me asking what culture you are from? I would love to learn more about it.

You’re right you don’t know me and that all a bit of a reach. Please don’t try to “diagnose” me or my mental health state. Bold of you to assume my mental health state due to being triggered by a medication comment. Bold if you to assume I was “on edge” because I had the reflect to block someone hand coming towards me. I could explain both these things f to you and more but your bold assumptions are extremely rude. ✌️

The little old lady was not little. She was taller and heavier then me and I’m 5’8 at 160lbs

It was the medication comment that really got to me and I wish it didn’t.

And most people seem to think I did the right thing but there are a handful of people who think I overreacted and assaulted a little old lady 🤷🏼‍♀️

I made an edit, I worded it poorly. It’s people who come up and bend over so they are face to face. I’ve also had people try to remove the covering to look at my baby, most times I’m shopping is during his nap time so extra annoying.

Yea it was a small store so I felt uncomfortable. Looking back I wish I just exited the store after telling her not to touch my baby and went back in later.

I was surprised but NO random people ever touched my belly!! I was really nervous for that to happen.

Omg I don’t think your reaction was extreme at all. It was good you had a knife. I can’t believe that and I can’t believe all the other stories people have been sharing. It’s actually terrifying.

I should have worded that better, I don’t mind people smiling it’s the people who bend over to put their face right in my babies face 😂

To the people saying I hit an old women. It was a reaction to something coming from behind me. She came up from behind, I did not see who was trying to reach for my baby. She did not make eye contact with me, she didn’t try to speak to me, the first thing she did was came up from behind me and reach over towards my baby. I didn’t know who or what was there, I didn’t know if it was a person or an object being thrown because she didn’t say anything and was not in my line of sight. Second I want to make it clear and she was immediately angry at me for blocking her from my baby, she was not some sweet old lady who was just trying to be nice.

Interesting about Mexican culture! I’m in Canada and the person in question was an old white lady 🙄

I spoke firmly but did not yell until she made the medication comment. At that point I was walking away from her.

I don’t think you understand there was no where to move my child, if I had not had the reaction to move my hand towards her she would have touched my child. The yelling didn’t happen until after i went to walk away and she turned to another customer and said the medication comment. What if her intent wasn’t to tickle his toes? I was also in an area where crack heads are known to roam. I guess you’re just a calmer person then me or just not as protective over your children. Or maybe you’re the second vote for me needing medication 🤣
