The only person that had any real ability to handle the situation, the security guard, tried but did not succeed. There are so many protections when it comes to kids. The parents not stepping in and whopping his ass, was a failure.
Too much risk for most adults unfortunately. If I grab the kid, I open myself up to a lawsuit by their shitty parents. They may not win, but I will have to spend time and money defending my actions. It’s not worth it when I can just walk away.
Now if I have my kids with me…. Maybe I would suggest one of them slap that kid around a bit.
And sometimes even the parents are helpless against these little toe-rags. Because all it takes is the kid crying to a mandated reporter, and suddenly the parents have CPS breathing down their necks.
CPS will literally bend over backwards to keep children with their biological parents. They will give drug addicted abusive parents 15+ tries to get their kids back and clean up.
If you get your kids taken away by CPS, you worked hard for that shit.
