If it is inappropriate, what's a good alternative?
Tosspots.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I would say wanker is not appropriate for kids. I don't know if there's anything more interesting than "jerk" that's not stupid like "stupidhead" or whatever.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I need something said by an old British bat.

And since "jerk" is short for "jerkoff" it means the same as "wanker."

Tosspot is a Britishism!

Well, yeah, but I think "jerk" is thought to be more kid-appropriate than "jerkoff." Actually, I remember when my mother decided she should stop calling her fellow drivers "jerkoff" when I was a kid.
I've got nothing on old British bats.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
And since "jerk" is short for "jerkoff" it means the same as "wanker."
But isn't "tosspot" related to "tosser" and therefore pretty much a reference to wanking?
Are there any British coloquialisms for stupid people that aren't naughty?
Wanker, pillock, berk, bugger - all pretty much kid inappropriate.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Happy equinox! It's Fall! (Except for you tosspots in the Southern Hemisphere, who get Spring.)
