A mother confronted another woman at a nightclub after her son was playfully hit with a blow-up toy, leading to a heated argument.
Carla didn’t take it well at all. She ended up pushing Amelia in the face during a heated argument outside the club. It was a bit of a mess. The inflatable toys were meant to be fun, but things escalated quickly.
In court, it came out that Amelia has autism and selective mutism, which makes situations like this really tough for her. She said the whole thing left her feeling super anxious about going back to Birkenhead.
Carla, who has a history of trouble with the law, claimed she wasn’t on her ADHD medication at the time, which contributed to her reaction. Her lawyer said she was just trying to defend herself after Amelia got in her face.
After the first incident, Amelia faced another attack while waiting for a taxi. A different woman, Emma Davis, dragged her to the ground over some comments about her height.
Both Carla and Emma ended up with community service and fines. It’s a reminder that sometimes, things can spiral out of control over something that started as a joke.
