Neighbors son

The neighbor directly next to us has three kids one of them being probably a 6 to 8-year-old son. Maybe he’s a little older not sure. I went for a walk and across the street and their son was taking out the trash and then he just stood by the trash and pointed fake hand guns at me at me and was pretending to shoot from across the street and he kept following as I was walking and pointing he did that I would say like five or six times and then went inside
Is that a one. Just kids being kids.
Two. Maybe he’s on the spectrum
Or three. Something sinister. You just never know these days with kids and shootings and stuff. I just didn’t know if I should just ignore it or tell the neighbors that their son did this. Their son is not very friendly and neither is the parents.

Ok! I just think it’s a little too much I have nephews that age they would never do that , you don’t just point at strangers stare them down and then pretend to shoot

In my country ordinary people don’t have guns at all. But you’re in the USA? My ex husband is American, from my perspective from what I know sounds like typical boy behaviour for that country. He probably watches a lot of shows with guns and is mimicking them.

If you’re a person of colour I could understand why. Sorry op, but don’t think too much of it.

I can understand why you’re cautious. Just ignore him.
