children on the street

S

hi everyone
I walk everywhere. These kids on bicycles, sometimes they like to run their bicycle silently and closely (from behind you) and then SHOUT very loudly to give you a fright. I've always steadied myself, and not turn and panic, because if I did that, it would give them the satisfaction of their prank.

This is also normal with lads in cars.
They love to shout words when the car comes very near when we walk.
I really wish they wouldn't behave like this.

2 nights ago I was walking home and met two boys on bicycles, maybe 10 or 11. As I passed the second boy, he looked at me and said very loudly "OLD CAT".

I walked passed, of course, and ignored him but I heard the old cat title. I was amused, I was thinking, oh my do I really look like an old cat now, I wasn't angry, but still on reflection I think this boy was very rude, and there are some very rude children on the streets.

has anyone else been called "old cat??"
what would you have done (in my place)? also walk away?
just wondering..

I've never been old cat - but I agree kids seem to be a lot ruder these days

When kids are rude or say things trying to be 'funny and cool' I just tend to roll my eyes and laugh at them - that usually shows them that you aren't bothered and they have failed to get a rise out of you.

There's children on the street using guns and knives; taking drugs and each other's lives.
Killing each other with knives and forks, and calling each other names like "dork"...


First thought into my head.
