I’m 61 and recently a youngster (over 21) got in my grill ... he became a foot taller while I demonstrated my grip on his throat.
His Grandmother (my Friend) and his Uncle were on either side of me, I apologized to them and dropped him.
He calls me Sir now and does not back talk his Grandma anymore, (She is in her 80’s and he lives in her house) I had fears for her safety but Grandma and Uncle say that the punk is moving.
Adrenaline can make you much stronger than you think you are but kids these days are like wafers, I felt no weight and he was at least 6” taller than me.
In retrospect my actions were VERY DUMB ... I learned the lesson many years ago ... NEVER interfere or involve yourself in Family disputes ... I was lucky it turned out the way it did.
(stupid punk screwed up stuck his finger in my chest and asked “What YOU gonna do?” My “Stupid” took over)

I disagree. A stupid punk shouldn’t mess with a grown ass man. He’ll lose every time.
Great story and great job! America would be a much better society if every testosterone-laden youngster was put in his place by an older man. I had it out with a couple of mine and they straightened up.
The Bible says the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom, and fathers need to model that relationship. Reasoning is only possible if a person understands their place in the universe.
