Put them in their damn place. I don’t give a fuck if they told their parents or not. Knowing my family as far as my brothers, my sisters, my cousins, they know me. They know I’m a very hard working man, very respectful w 10 years of military service. So they know I’m not going to just start some shit w out there being a good reason.

verbally smack them down

Tell them that there are being disrespectful and to come back when that are ready to both apologise and stop doing it... and tell them that until they do that you will be ignoring them... and stick to it no matter what. Christmas birthdays etc just give them a card and nothing more

Say something like "come back to me when you've decided to grow up."

Unless they have a slightly valid point, then ask them "Why do you think that?"

[LazerBean]

Correct them. If it persists, I'd talk with their parents.

Pop them. If your parents won't teach you basic courtesy, I will.

I’d just ask them or their parents what their problem is.

Talk to the kid first. If they don't stop then talk to their parents

Would depend on the context and my relationship with them and their parents.

Be rude back? I don't know.

[LavLavLuv]

Talk to them and then their parents

I’d talk to his parents.
