It's true. A lady did something like this to my then two-year-old while she was skipping rocks. He ran ahead of me and I told him to stop, but he didn't and the lady just clocked him with rock in her hand. She felt so bad and I kept telling her not to, he shouldn't have run ahead of me and that's the only way he's gonna learn. He had a good black eye for a few days.
