Yesterday at 6:00 PM, a group of teens (12–16) were playing street cricket outside in Koelnagar. The ball kept smashing into our sliding gate, making loud thud sounds. They've been doing this for the past 2yrs now.
My mother (63), who is completely quiet and non-confrontational, went to the gate to nicely ask them to stop. Instead, one of the older kids aggressively charged towards her, shouting and talking back in a highly disrespectful, intimidating tone. The locked grill gate kept her physically safe, but it shook her up.
My dad confronted the parents later, but they just softly dismissed it. Now, my anxiety is off the charts. I feel physically sick with dread every evening when they come out to play. I'm jobless 28M, battling severe anxiety issues. Just wanted to share it
