I saw this video not too long ago and I was not happy seeing it. :evil: In my opinion, the mother was totally out of line of punching the skateboarder. :nono: Plus, it's her fault for not supervising her toddler in a partial skate park. Here's the video:

    The skater looked like he was feeling badly. The mother was neglectful in allowing her toddler to run around in an area that featured risk. She should punch herself for not looking out for her child while expecting others to.

    The skater did very well not reacting to the cheap shot.

    I get so sick and tired of seeing mothers take their kids places then completely shut off to what their kids are doing. :roll: I see it all the time. I got sick to death of taking my little girl to her local old playground and seeing parents dump their kids there and then go off to talk crap with other mothers, like its a freakin daycare! Urrrgh One mother's little boy (approx. 1-1\2 year old) always had a scratched up nose and bruises over him because she'd dump him outside then sod off inside to talk shit with other women. I was constantly stopping him from hurting himself, I was terrified for him. :evil:

    I just saw this on FB and as angry as it may make someone...at the end of the day if that's the worst thing that happens then I would say we're ahead of the game.

    It takes the mom that long to get to him. Where the fuck was she. She's fucken lucky this guy kept his cool. I would've called the cops and showed them the video. Have that bitch arrested. Clear as fucken day he didn't do that shit on purpose. On his bday, who the fuck cares what day it was, it was a fucken accident period!

    If you watch it w/ the sound off, it almost looks staged/faked. You don't hear the crying or the mother yelling. You just see this small human shape ragdoll to the ground and then this "mother" walking weirdly slowly from like a football field away. If she was so upset, why would she be walking so casually? Makes the anger at the end seem conjured.

    I actually just watched it with the sound off and was about to comment the exact same - this looks fake. The skater even leans away with the punch they way they do in the WWE or something.
    Maybe it isn't though - it could have been much worse.
    "Hey little buddy - you gotta watch out" is really all that needed to be said from this incident

    Unless there is some serious child abuse going on here, it's not fake.... But the mother who punched him is a fucking asshole.
