Do you know that I went out for a swim in the lake today? Swim out to the floating dock. Little kid is pushing all the other kids off the dock into the water. I pushed him into the water. I don't feel bad.
That's weird, so what happened next? It sounds like the boy was naughty.
I was shocked when I heard a little girls screaming for help.
While the kid needed to be punished accordingly, you didn't need to stoop to his level and push him too. You are an adult and should've been more mature and been a peace maker. You are just assaulting kids at this point.
The kid deserved it.
Luckily, he didn't drown because If he did, you would have regretted your action. If something like this happens next time, you should really use your head and not your fist. Kids are easily scared when an adult raises their voice, so next time, use words to deal with naughty children.
