He really deserves more. That was to get him to stop. Wonder what the context was. Not that the kid's behavior was in any way acceptable! It's unusual to me to see this so I question why.

His parents did a horrible job of teaching this boy to respect his elders…..hope he has a father that can handle the boy!

Spent more time with him in that moment than his father ever did.
