I will now very briefly explain why these guys fought.
Classic city. There is nothing to do in it as usual - there is no need to graze and milk cows, there is asphalt and concrete all around. We are looking for the fifth point of adventure in our quarter. We play a crowd of ninjas and all that stuff. The builders built a new skyscraper near our house, and there are boys hanging out in the yard. We look at them, they look at us too. We went to cut out ash rods for ourselves in the planting, they responded to us with poles. Since our boys are calling me, they say we run faster, there ours with the new ones on the corner are throwing stones! Ooooo, ours are being thrown, it’s not gentlemanly, however ... As a result of a yard battle, they hit me in the forehead. Stone. It’s very unpleasant, however ... How my eyes still remained intact, it’s amazing ... I leave the wounded from the battlefield, I sit in the yard with the support of a friend, I think about the opponents of the scoundrels. After 5 minutes, their eldest comes running with his mother, they both have eyes on the ruble (Soviet ruble), I think, well, enemy abuse will begin now ... And then ... His mother examines me, is everything in order with me, scolded her son for this action, as it turned out, he was such a mark: the kid apologized, asked for forgiveness, which I looked at with my mouth open - others would have pissed off to admit their jamb (including me), but he did not pissed off to receive stars from his parents for his cant. The next day we met with him, talked, it turned out that no one planned to fight with us, they just played someone else and made poles, and some asshole threw the first stone, but no one knows, neither ours nor them (meaning it was profitable for some asshole). As a result, zadruzhili yards.
If there was someone who would make friends with us right away, then there would be no conflict. Those boys fought because stupidity was in their heads instead of friendship. There is no more reason for causeless fights.
Yes, no doubt, there are such scoundrels who from birth tend to sow violence around them in abundance - these are mentally ill people, i.e. sadists. It is absolutely impossible to make friends with the latter with normal, average people. As they say, the humpbacked grave will fix it.
As for ordinary boys, the ancient rule works here:
"Instruct the young man at the beginning of his path: he will not deviate from it when he is old."
