Cookie brat

How do kids get away with this and why do parents just ignore them?

the 'parents' figure that after they've finished getting them past the toddler/potty training stage that it's time for society to take over and raise their 'little darling.'

that, or they think children are like roaches; they hatch out and are self sufficient from that day on.

Back in the day (yes i am aware that i am WAAAY too young to say that) My mom carried a wooden spoon in her purse.... my older brother and i DID NOT TOUCH, nor did we wander off... and if she didn't have the spoon, that was ok, b/c she wears rings, (did then, does now) and she might just turn one of them around and come up and "Gibb" us (NCIS ftw!) and with the ring.... then a glare, and a point.... no words.

her other solution was " Do you want to go sit in the car?" "no" "Then i suggest you... (correct behavior) "

I would've tanned that kid's hide and ground her for a month!

And furthermore, I'm honored to have posted anything so memorable that it haunted your head.

Seems rather fitting, really.

If you were the kid's parent, none of that would have gone on in the first place, I'd wager.

Not the kids fault.A kid will go on repeating something until its parent acknowledges it.

And sometimes long after, actually. My almost-four-year-old will keep asking the same flippin' question on repeat even when I've answered it twenty times already. And usually while I'm trying to get other things done too.

That being said, there's no excuse for the attendant adults' choice not to try to rein the kid in at all. Even after twenty billion repeats of "Why'd he do that, Mommy?" or "I want a treat!" I'd still give my kid an answer.

Even if that answer is "No cookies" (in this case), also on repeat.

Keep your damn cookies away from me. I'm on an apple diet, but I have no qualms of throwing them at people taunting me with cookies

Damn right! No way in hell would I let that happen with any child of mine! I don't tolerate shit, especially from bratty kids.

Neither my brother nor I would ever have acted like that in public. Mom had rules and woe betide those who failed to heed them.

yep, big momma chains is the same way; no waiting for dad, she'll handle it herself. baby chains found out that he gets the same treatment as i did for bad behavior...
