Wedding Woes

So on our way to dinner last night...

DH and I were driving out of our neighborhood.  We came around a curve and saw these three kids standing next to this tree.  There was an older boy (probably 5 or 6) and then two younger girls (probably 3-4).  No parents around or anything.  They were all wearing bicycle helmets, but there were no bikes around. 

The little boy sees us coming, stares us down, and then throws something at our car.  We didn't hear anything hit the car, but DH slowed down and rolled the window down.  He was just going to stay "Hey kid, don't throw stuff at cars." But as soon as DH started to stop, the kids started running towards a house.  The boy, turns around, makes a stink face, and gives DH the 'thumbs down."  DH said, "Oh HELL no."

The kids ran into the house.  DH went and knocked on the door and the mom came out.  He told her what the kids had done.  She was apologetic and whatnot.  

I just hope the kid doesn't have a rock the next time he sees us.

    Dang.  Kids are ballsy these days and most parents are too hung up on being "friends."  I hope that parent take action.

    Hopefully Mom beat the kid's ass for being a snit and trying to hit people's cars.

    Oh hell no @ the behavior and the small children outside unattended. Of course, who would kidnap a little assshole like that?

    I was completely side-eyeing the small children outside and unattended and practically standing in the street.  DH said he was a) not convinced that the mom was going to do anything and b) he got a glimpse into their house when she opened the door and it was *trashed* with the kids stuff.  So who do YOU think is running the show around there?

    I'm sure they'd bring him back and give the parent some money if they ever took him.  What a littleshithead.
