A friend, who shall remain nameless, went OFF on two neighborhood kids because they smashed a handful of soda cans in the street at a blockparty.
One of the kids had to scrub the soda with a brush.
Minor details to note:
- the soda tossing happened when it was dark (the kids didn't see the mess)
- the angry mom went around moralizing it as if the turbulent little pukes were public enemy number one
- the neighborhood kids tattled because they knew they would look like angelic little kiss ups
- nobody said, hey, look guys, the street's sticky. do you think I want my street to look like that? Instead, the neighborhood watched the one boy out there with his brush.
I think it's cool for the kids to wash it up (like I don't feel bad about making a kid clean up his own mess) but to be made to feel like an ass over it? no way...thoughts?
