At a science fair I told a child "Wow I could make a much better volcano" and they started crying. Are they the asshole? (hexbear.net)

Like it's true. I'm an adult and I'm smart and I'm good at everything I do. I could clearly make a better volcano and they hurt my self-esteem by entering theirs in a competition I can't join. When they started crying they got all the attention and it made me cry louder so bystanders would pay attention to me instead. The people restraining me said I'm the asshole (I'm not) but I think they're the asshole for not acknowledging I'd make a better volcano or letting me prove it. ATTA?

The kid was probably bourgeois. I don't care what happens to Romanovs so it was easy to emotionally distance myself from the situation.
