"You gay fag" The kids behind the microphones

As some of you guys might know, I work at a game shop in Australia (creatively called GAME) while I'm studying my Journalism Degree full time. I'm often exposed to tons of interesting people, for better and worse. Most of the time it's just 19-25 year old guys with their girlfriends browsing, the dad with the kids and wife agreeing to "meet him back here" is also another popular customer. There is (with every retail job) the angry mum and the snot nosed- little shit of a kid who gets whatever he wants by whining hard enough.  
 
Yesterday, as I worked through my 3-9 shift, this group of 11-12 year old kids came in and for fuck sake...you know those kids who scream and swear on Xbox Live/PSN/Steam? Yeah, they're like that in real life as well.  
 
As they went around the shop touching displays and messing up the games (which I have no problem with, they're kids after all) some of the shit that came out of their mouths was just fucking terrible.  
 
"Bioshock 2? thats a fucking shit game for pussies, I was waiting for the girl to give me a blowjob hahahahah" 
"OMG NAUGHTY BEAR this bear kills shit n stuff, ill give you a blowjob if you get that game man!!"  
 "The PS3 has internet on it so you can go on redtube on the big screen *giggle like little girls*" 

So, the mum comes in from another shop carrying a bunch of bags and stands with the boys as they decided which game they wanted.  
 
"How about this one?" said the mum as she picked up the On Sale Mirrors Edge 
" Shutup mum, you don't get to talk in here" 
The mum just turns around and smiles at me as if to say 'Oh those boys :-D'
 
I stopped paying attention and served and greeted a few customers and the kids and mum came up to the counter with a copy of Bioshock 2 (Rated MA in Australia, the highest our shitty rating system goes at the moment) and I say to the mum "Is it ok that this is MA?" which she replied "he gets whatever will shut him up" and again, I got the 'those boys of mine hey ? :-D!!' smile.  
 
The mum pays for the game and leaves the shop.The kids stay behind to see if they can annoy me by asking if I was gay or if i thought they were attractive.  
 
Anyway, this is a call out to anyone that works in retail, any similar stories? and do you think the age of saying stuff you would only say on the internet in real life is upon us?

You can't see me right now, but I'm currently wearing an expression of horror (with a twist of disgust) on my face.

You should have hit those kids.  Right in the face.

It's bad parenting. No twelve year old should speak like that, I'm eighteen and I don't even speak like that. Fortunately enough I've never ran into any children like that ;)

Yo bro I'm sorry, me and my friends will try not to upset your gay ass next time we're in your gay store.  Next time we come in you can just give me a blowjob.

That was a funny read. 

You should have done one of these things. 
 
-Tell the lady that you don't have the game. 
-Sweet talk the kids into giving you their Gamertag and post it online for everyone else to harass 
-Tell the kids that you're not gay. Followed by you will soon meet their Mom after work to give that bitch the best beating of her life in her fartbox.

Don't you have the right to refuse service?

sounds like someone needs to do some parenting with the back of her hand

Yeah, I have a feeling that the internet has just about fucked up those kids minds.

Further reinforcing my hatred for children, they should be locked up in a  small room until their 12, then shipped off into a hole in the ground.

You sound as dopey as those kids.  "

The way i see it.... if i spend $8-15 whatever bucks on xbox live or the sort, with money i worked for, i deserve a "ban this bitch-ass kid" button that i can push... why?  It should be a bannable offense to play M-Rated games if you're underage.  And as far as real life.... rules are rules but the way i see it.... if your balls have dropped and theirs haven't you deserve the right to kick them up into their throat.

While we may this solution attractive in our fantasy, it obviously isn't practical. There was this one rare and unique case where a kid was shut in a room until that age. The kid didn't know how to speak and had very limited social communication skills. "

" @fentonalpha: Thanks, though I think I took the guy too seriously, since this is the internet. 
 
In case anyone was wondering who I was referring to, I was referring to this kid. "

" @fentonalpha: I'm not going to sit here and say I never played an M-Rated game before I turned 17, because I would be lying. But I can assure you that I never talked like those kids did online, and still don't talk like those kids online. Should it be bannable that someone under the age of 17 is playing an M-Rated game? No. Should it be bannable that kids are talking like that to others online? Most certainly.  That's the problem with games that have peer-to-peer hosting. Unless you're playing a game like L4D where you can vote-kick people, you can't get rid of kids like that. "

Whoops.... i totally misread your comment.... i thought you were implying that the kids in the gamestore where basically locked away infront if their xbox's and did not develop any social skills.   My bad... sleep deprived. "

" @Meteora: There was a girl in Russia who was literally raised by dogs. They found her last year... "

hmm i might spell it mom

i woulda killed the kids.

You really cant blame the kids. Its their parents. Granted its harder than ever to stop kids from getting their noses into fucked up shit on the internet. I mean when I was a kid I ran around outside or played super nintendo. The internet was barely even a thing back then.

Yeah...I wasn't be serious. I just don't understand how parents can raise their children to be such intolerable idiots. "

You should have to be able to put in your birthday in Xbox Live. That way if you're playing a rated M game online then it will stop you. "

That would never work. The kids would just put a fake birthday. "

"How about this one?" said the mum as she picked up the On Sale Mirrors Edge  
" Shutup mum, you don't get to talk in here" 

Stop blaming the paraents,..well mabe not for everything. I'd give them an adjusted discount in really grasping the situation. But they will, oh they will. Some of them will anyways. Meanwhile their kids are miles ahead on the 'we know wuts we wanr' and they are doing it. Like you all did. Like I did many years ago. But yeah still, mabe way worse these days. Mabe.
 
It's not that parents are clueless, but sometimes they just wish they could be . Just doesn't work though with some little pricks.. oh did I say that? They will always run with the ball, a determined faction Well. it's mabe complex mabe why kids trip on the stuff they do, and the parents arn't there for it. Welcome to how it always was.

Oh, those Australians! Seriously parents, and overall people, need to stop being too nice. Either the kids grow up too nice and avoid issues, or they cause issues. There are tens of millions of people who are either too weak or jackasses thanks to the lack of parenting. Honestly, I didn't think it was a worldwide problem, maybe it isn't.

Truer words have not been typed on this site.  That is a very good point. "
