Your thoughts are appreciated!

If the player made contact, any contact, with you deliberately, then it should have been an immediate flagrant "T". You can't allow any participant to get away with acts like that. Fwiw, in our associaton, it's mandatory that all contact situations are reported to the executive immediately, so we can recommend whether charges should be laid also.

Tough situation. Your dad's advice was right on, imo.
Yup. Don't try to reason with 10-12 year olds. Whack and get on with the game.
