    Good answer. I gotta remember that one.

    You know, if he was disrespecting an adult in that way, then he had none to recover. I hope Derek made that boy's parents feel ashamed. I know that I would if my kids were to disrespect people like that. Good for you, Derek. I have to remember that one.

    Excellent response Derek. I almost feel sorry for the kid.

    Derek,
    Simply Brilliant. You should not have had that aggravation. I hope his parents hear about it and have a gentle discussion with him. A chip on the shoulder like that among his peers could result in some harm to him.
    Cheers
