It is unacceptable for a man to approach random children and to touch them. There are consequences to touching kids and the justification provided does not excuse the intrusion. What may have been acceptable 20 years ago, is no longer acceptable today. Where does anyone get off thinking that they can go up to someone and wipe their poxy hands on them? It was a violation of the child's privacy. You see what you want to see in the video, and I see the father telling off the predatory male. There is an exchange of words and then the father shoves the man out of the way. So far, all we have is the man who assaulted the child's version of events. The father may have a different version of the event, particularly when he tells the man to go away and the man does not. The man is playing up his age and "infirmity". 73 is not that old, and certainly not an age that justifies going up to random kids and touching them. The father did what the kid wanted to do and should have done, but could not.
