Did I say horrible? Anyway, the threat is clearly to either physically restrain the child or to chastise them. My problem is that the OP seems quite proud of what he said, which I fear reflects part of the problem attitude that some Freppers exhibit. It would have been sufficient to draw the parent's attention to the child's behavior without the need for any further comment.
