Are kids taught throughout their childhood and teens to scream and fight when adults approach them close enough to grab them? Yes. They are taught that by responsible parents and law enforcement mentors who train the kids, usually in school settings.

Was the adult told THAT NIGHT to NOT do exactly what he chose to do? Yes.

That should be the end of the "But he hit me" defense from the adult.
