#the part that got me was “a situation shouldn't go unpunished”

[calciumyum]

People tend to forget that kids are people. As a kid, whenever adults yell at me, my first thought was always "You don't have to raise your voice to tell me this, it's only scaring me. Why are you always angry at me? You must hate me so much." For situations like this, I'd let myself be calm first and just simply speak to the kid. Maybe ask them where they got the tool in the first place and tell them not to use them without supervision, and explain to them what I'll have to do now that the car is damaged, and then redirect their energy towards a similar activity. Then again, I'm just a 22 years old Indonesian college student who can't babysit because he can't meet the children's energy so eh take it with a grain of salt
