Alright I go to play basket ball at this elementary school, and these little kids show up there every once and awhile, and they are obnoxious out of this world. They call me and my friend names, and will constantly harass us, non-stop. They'll all sit around and just call us names, and get in our faces, and even touch us sometimes, like pull on our arms. I've had them actually jump on me and grab my legs and try to keep me from leaving.
One came up to me and was being really rude, so i told him his mom is divorced and he's a mistake. and then he got real close to me and said "are you talking about my mom?" I he was going to attack me or something, So I snapped and yelled as mean as i could and said "Get the F*ck AWAY FROM ME!!!
keep in time the entire time they have been calling us names and using all sorts of explicit language.
and I continued to yell at him and told him things like "don't you ever touch me!", and "get away from me!" and as i walked away.....

They are two little twits who go to the gym, because they have nothing better to do than harrass you and your friend. If they aren't there to play basket ball, then they shouldn't be there at all.
All things considered, I thought you handled things pretty well under the circumstases.
These kids went on, and on, and on, not to mention they showed up at other times doing the same things. So you pretty well know they'll be back again.
Rule of thumb, NEVER, EVER touch either one of those nasty little twits, bebause then you and your friend will be the looser's of the game when the police come and take the both you for a ride to the police station. You could be charged with assault.
You can do all the name calling in the world, but it isn't going to change a thing. As you found out things got even worse when you were leaving.
My suggestion to you and your friend is go to the police station and tell them what has been going on when you and your friend go play basket ball. Tell the police the whole story about the disruption they cause, along with the name calling, getting in your face and actually jumping on you.
I know you would like nothing better than to get your hands on them, but YOU CAN'T for the reasons I mentioned above.
Sure hope things get better for you and your friend. By the way, who's doing better at basket ball?
Have a good one ........

When you were in elementary school, didn't you ever know some kids that were like this. Usually from broken homes with alcoholic parents. They are used to seeing people being verbally/physically asaulted and therefore are very good at it. They are bullies because they need to feel some power, because otherwise they are powerless.
Pyschologically speaking, Your response was what these children expected and was probably not the best route to take because now they know they can get under your skin.
If this happens again when you and your friend are playing basketball, be very calm and patient(something that they are not used to, so they will be off guard). You can chose to ignore the first or second verbal assault, But by the third you should say something. Camly and without real emotion something like this will work, " I feel really sorry for you." They will probably be like, "you feel sorry for me, I feel sorry for you, 'cause you're such a loser". Don't take any offense, maybe even laugh a bit, and then calmly respond, "No seriously I feel sorry for you. You obviously have parents that don't care about you, because if you did, you wouldn't have to try to get attention from a stranger playing basketball." Now I am not sure what the resonse will be here, but it will be something about how their parents love them and to prove it they will probably give you an example(they bought me this Bike). If something like that is used, then you could come back and say " Little dude. I am sorry but you are a bad kid, and bad kids only get that way 'cause they have bad parents. It isn't your fault. You didn't get to choose them. Hey, why don't you and your friends play some basketball with us, you can be on my team, your 2 buddies on my friends."
He is probably jealous or envious of you. You can turn this around and make it a positive experience. Kids like this, never had a chance, I think it would be good for them if a stranger showed them some care and compassion. I know what you are saying is initally hurtful, but it is only so that the truth gets out there so the kids and yourself can move on. They probably want to play basketball too.

lol, I'm from Canada so try some Canadian advice. First of all what the hell are these kids doing around that time? Isn't it their school time if your at your school playing b ball? Or is it after hours? Anyways either do 1 of 3 things.
1) find a new place to play
2) act really creepy to one of them and/or beat them up (not recommended)
3) deal with it yourself. your in elementary, you should be able to figure it out, or consult your parents/guardians. but they're just kids. don't get the authorities involved, the authorities have other bigger manners to attend to.

Any child who acts that way has no parental figures showing them wrong; they aren't taught that violence begets violence and there are no consequences for such ill-mannered behaviors.
Now, I myself, think it should be perfectly legal for any adult who's willing to do it, to beat some manners into any child who acts that way. Since my mind thinks of ways to sabotage people (especially ill-mannered children), I'm a risk to give you any ideas I would use to get even with those kids.
But, hey... far be it from me to put anything violent into another person's head. See, I might not be able to tell you to hire a small band of older children for fifty bucks to smear their targets into mush on the concrete, so I'd better keep that to myself.
I'm also not allowed to tell you to take some baseball bats and a few baskets of baseballs with you and practice your targeting by hitting the balls at the children's heads. It's not YOUR fault if they "got in the way"... you were there just to practice.
But, I guess I can't say much about it. Good luck with your problem. I hope your 'swing' at finding a solution 'hits' with success.

Absolutely beat the **** outta them, if you're not 18, shouldn't be to big of a deal, unless you put them in the hospital... me personally, I'd just kick'em in the shin, and make'em leave! Problem solved, they come back, do it again!
And it's below the waist, so you can't get in trouble for 'aggrivated assault' or anything like that, so you couldn't be tried as an adult (if you're like 16 or 17), any younger than that, and they'll prolly give you a slap on the wrist.

One by one without their friends around stomp their a** into the ground. Yes they will try to gang up on you. Never give them the opportunity to do so. Always travel in a group and then see what type of BS they wish to use when you have back up. Pick the one that thinks that he is Billy bad a** and stomp his a** in front of his friends. I went through this for years as I was growing up. Stop it now before it goes to far.

Honestly, there is nothing you can do on your own. If you get a bunch of adults nearby to watch, this would probably stop them. Kids can be cruel. The idea is not to ignore but not to be aggressive back and be on their level.
Ask around for adults to volunteer to be there and watch.
Or you can talk to a local police and ask for suggestions.

Tell them that God will send them to the fiery pits of hell when they die at an early age from a rare disease.
Also tell them that they will never amount to anything...
I figured if you can get ahold of a kid in front of the other kids by the front collar of their shirt and pull them up to your face and say something like your going to maim them until there eyes bleed and then that once your done with them they will never be able to get rid of the memories. Say it is a last warning... If they do it again, act like your going to do it to them...
Thats all I can think of... I dislike children with a passion.
If that fails you can just threaten to contact their parents... and actually contact them if it continues...

Sounds like the parents aren't doing their job - oh I know DUH.
with that said - I can remember if I did that as a child - the (as in you) person involved would have drug me home.
I have not a bit of advice other than we lost the *it takes a village to raise a child* mentality....
Take care, I'm with you,
Lisa
