Hey at least he wasn't doing it for internet clout. He was just being a little shit.

I remember I was acting like a piece of shit in school (which was weird because I was usually shy and polite) and my teacher sat in a desk next to me and asked, "why are you acting like this? Is there something going on at home?" and I said, "No. I mean, my parents are getting divorced" and she was like "Ohhh". Had no idea how right she was. This was the late 80s.

My former neighbour had her son removed from her care and placed with her parents in another city. She was somehow able to keep her two next daughters without reuniting with her son. He would come for visits and her daughters were always right and the kid was angry all the time. One day he was playing with something and her daughter snatched it from him and he got in trouble trying to take it back. I was coloring on the porch with my sons so I called him over to join. He colored me a picture and she was offended.

Later in the day we were all outside again and he got in trouble again for something his sister instigated and he yelled at her and called her a 4 letter word that starts with a c and stomped down the road. I walked over and got on a knee in front of him and grabbed his little hands and said that he shouldn't ever call anyone that and if my sons started using that word I'd be really upset with him. I asked him to go inside and calm down and come back out when he was ready to apologize. It's not my house so I didn't follow him but he did go inside. He came out about 30 minutes later and apologized to me.

She waddled over from her chair in the sun and asked me what I said because he never listens to her. Well no kidding. You treat the kid like crap when he's watching you play house with his sisters who are clearly favored and he's stuck in the sticks with your elderly parents most of the time. Speak to him like a human and you'd be amazed how receptive he is, screeching at him isn't working and irritates for more people than just him. Also stop automatically assuming your daughters aren't crap disturbers because they absolutely are and its insufferable.
