TIFU by not calling the police on crazy mother at playground

For a little context: I’m Italian, my partner is not, we have a son together and he has a daughter who is on the spectrum.

Dad : my partner

To the story: Today was a nice Sunday afternoon, we decided to go and play at the local playground because is very good for sensory seekers and in general is a very cute place to be as family. The place wasn’t packed with people, but there were few families, we spent a good hour/ hour and half playing before the incident, stepdaughter was particularly interested in some little girls playing in the swings, as said before she’s on the spectrum so she plays different in some way, she just wanted to watch at the time, so she approached this swing where little girl was, I tried to take her away few times but she kept going near, at some point she went back there and as I was about to take her crazy mother took stepdaughter from her arm (quite squeezing it) and pushed her away, so I turned to her and said : Me: don’t touch her ! Crazy mother: next time I will not touch her, I will kick her in the face Me: what??? Are you stupid? Don’t touch her Crazy mother : next time take her away Me: (in English) you don’t say that about kids,(in Italian) are you fucking crazy? She’s a kid Crazy mother: (in Italian) so next time I will not touch her I will just kick her in the face So I told Dad to take stepdaughter and turned to crazy mother Me:(in English ) I will fuck you up you crazy bitch But dad took me away before I could On the way out she shouted at me in front of all the other families Crazy mother :(English) next time be nice !! Me: (in Italian) fuck off bitch (in English) I was fucking nice until you threatened to kick my kid in the face, prostitute! I wanted to wait in the park and call the police to report the threats she made but my partner dragged me home. I’m still furious and crying for how nervous I feel, I wanted to really report her but now I think it’s too late. My partner didn’t understand nothing as he was distracted with my son and half the conversation was in Italian, I feel like I want to go back ( it’s literally attached to my building) and look for her, but I know it’s wrong and I should just let it go. I’m flabbergasted that a mother could say something like this about another child, I never once mentioned her kid or anyone else, and she had no reason for this “hate” towards stepdaughter , or me or anyone else.

TL;DR: I went to the playground with my family (partner, son, stepdaughter, our friends), stepdaughter wanted to go on a swing that was occupied by a little girl, I told her to give her space but before I could reach her, little girl’s crazy mother pushed stepdaughter to move her, I told her to not touch her and she replied saying next time she will kick her in the face, I went crazy shouting but fucked up by not calling the police and following partner at home.

Small Update: I filed a police report and tried to include a description of the woman and her daughter, I did this around 5/6 pm and at 7pm police knocked at my door to take our statements ( mine and her dads). They told me they will send me a reference number so in case she tries to do anything else or even say anything like this I can call them and give them the reference number and they will come quickly. I will still go to the playground as it’s literally behind my building, I will not be bothered to walk 15 min because I might encounter her. If she even tried to approach me I will not hesitate to ring 999. Police agreed what she did was assault as in pushing her and threats to a child.

TIFU by forgetting my purse and attempting to get fuel

Not the craziest story but hey. I'm obligated to say this was a few months ago but I cringe every time I go past the petrol station . My petrol was getting low, not dangerously so but it said 27 miles left, (oftentimes it then suddenly drops to about 16 for example, and then 5 and then 0 very fast) I didnt have my purse on me as I just didn't need it... Picked my daughter up from school and then went on to collect my 2 stepdaughters from across town and then set off for home. En route the gauge went to 7 and then suddenly it was 1 so I stopped at the petrol station near our house. The petrol was on 0 as i pulled up to the pump and that's when I realised I had no money. I left the kids in the car at the pump and went in to talk to the cashier, it wasn't mega busy but there was a queue, I'd heard that they can help you if you can't pay for fuel. Like keeping something of yours as security. It was an elderly man and he basically refused to help. At this point i...

TIFU - Don’t do what I did

On Sunday morning Aug. 24th, I awoke to discover a large blind spot in my right eye, which turned out to be what is called wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD). It has resulted in a very significant, permanent loss of vision in that eye. Although I maintain good peripheral vision, whatever I focus on at best is very blurry, and mostly disappears. I can barely make out the large E at the top of the eye chart. If this happens to my left eye I’ll be unable to read or drive. It turns out that I missed the opportunity that I had to prevent this from becoming a serious problem because I failed to report what appeared to be minor changes in my vision. In the weeks prior to August I had noticed that what I knew to be straight lines appeared to my right eye to have a little waviness. I also noticed that the color of my front lawn, which I could see through the window from my recliner,  was subdued, looked almost gray, in my right eye. So I scheduled an eye exam, which revealed the p...

TIFU by getting suspended for 2 days by my front office in school.

I (13M) am an African American student at Jeannette junior high who had got suspended for 2 days here. I was in math class minding my business until my teacher had told me to go to the main office, which posed no problem to me. As i went down there, the people of the front office had stopped me and made me get a new ID (yes, we have id's.) so i had asked them if i could maybe do a different alternative and call my mother to let her bring the Id here, even then, the Id isn't that important. So, although i was talking to them in a calm manner and not showing any signs of rebellion, they had threatened to call the police on me without thinking twice before calling my parents. This is where i started getting angry, and even then now the black peers agree that could have been a racially motivated action. They then told me to sit in the office conference room because of that, leading into more anger. They had then called my mother who had came over to the school didn't even let ...
