"If your mother doesn't teach you manners, the world will." My friend from Kenya told me it's an old proverb where he's from.

If my kid did that, I'd let you splash them again.

Seriously my first thought if I saw this all occurring and my kid came complaining to me about it is I'd just say "well this is how the cat feels"

Truly cannot conceive of any other appropriate response. My kid's an asshole sometimes, better he get gentle lessons now.

Yes, no 10 year-old ever threw water at a cat.

I like to imagine she had the basin of water handy in that moment.
