I don't understand how kids can be this destructive. What he didn't get to buy a 5 dollar Chinese toy, so his life is ruined? Most kids might cry a little, but they won't go a-wall, kids just need to be taught how to learn with rejection sometimes.
I don't own any kids, but I have friends that do and the well behaved (very mature for age) kids have been taught by their parents what it takes to make the money to buy things, this sometimes involves the kid actually doing math on paper and the parents revealing to their children how much money they make and what the bills are to cover their living expenses ect., but these kids are well behaved and understand finances well, they would never do anything like this.
10 years old and he is already acting like a thug. I see a prison cell in his future unfortunately. His parents, if he has any that care, should be ashamed of themselves.
Aw come on, he is just frustrated because of the way the police treat some people and he is going to turn his life around and go to college some day ! He was just practicing up for when he can do some serious looting, er......"protesting", when he gets older.
Definitely not a tantrum. I think people are asking where are the parents because the kid was destructive for awhile before a store employee removed him from the store. The kid wasn't hiding on one aisle, he was walking around the store calmly and knocking stuff off the shelves. SO WHERE WAS THE PARENT?!
In five or six years, he will be beating women I'm sure.
The ass whoopin period is long gone with this one. You can't go from zero discipline to straight up ass beating... Especially at age 10.
All I know is that the manager of that store is the biggest pansy of all... If that little skidmark would have done that in my business, I would have been raising so much hell that the kid would have needed a pair of Depends on the way out.
I agree Albert - unfortunately in today's society - not only would you probably be arrested for assaulting him - the parent's would sue - and they'd probably win.
This ^^ is exactly why I think the adults were afraid to act. That, or being arrested for putting their hands on the precious snowflake. The PLS is old enough to know how adults hands are tied.
That is a great video. I wonder if more are coming. Was that tantrum staged? It could be a publicity stunt for Dollar Genaral. I don't like Dollar General.
But the question was what would I have done if I was there? I would have done the same thing that those other people did to him, but only I would have done that as quickly as I could. The only problem with that is that the parents would have sued me along with them suing the store.
The kid will probably do it again. And more kids will probably join.

My BIL has a teenaged son from his first marriage. A few months back they were in the barber shop getting their hair cut when the son acted surly and rude to the owner. My BIL grabbed him by his neck and demanded he apologize. The son ran out of the shop, called the police and told them his father had assaulted him. Thankfully there were so many witnesses that my BIL wasn't arrested, but this is the kind of power kids have nowadays.
