Its a bit different when its an opponent in a competitive game. They could shout any random mean thing at anyone just because they are frustrated. Taking them seriously is the wrong move. The girl in this situation already has a team, and team mates, and its none of them that are harassing her. She should be able to brush it off just as easy as any of the guys, and acting like she needs a defender isnt automatically the right move just because she's a girl.

All this to say, clearly this is just a dumb social media mother attempting to brag about their impulsive and violent child as if it were a good thing.

    Things only said by people who use racial slurs in online games.

    No, I don't like to speak or act for others without permission first. I won't assume my team mate is offended unless they say so, and won't jump to their defense unless they ask. I consider that to be a minimum level of respect and I would expect others treat me the same way.

    I fully agree with you, but I think we are picturing kids at the opposite ends of childhood. In my head we are talking about little kids that are very young and just learning things like impulse control and what is fair. The smear of the very few pixels left in the OP's image gave me the impression that we were dealing with someone pretty young. But if we're dealing with older kids, then the dynamic does change dramatically. If your teenager is physically lashing out at other kids then we are dealing with someone with behavioral problems (both child and parents) and that does need a much stronger correction.
