Facebook Group Shames Single Moms Who Overstepped Their Entitlement, and Here Are 35 of the Weirdest Ones
Get ready to roll your eyes as you read through.
Skills are needed to find a decent deal. Some people gather coupons, compare prices, and piece together any and all discounts, specials, and other sales that may be available.
However, for every informed customer, there is someone whose purchasing philosophy is essentially, "give me things because I said so." Sadly, a sense of entitlement is frequently completely unconnected to the characteristics we may assume would qualify someone for assistance.
Instead, highly entitled individuals often lack basic social skills, resulting in everyone who interacts with them being subjected to the most irrational demands. Many of these single parents genuinely believe they deserve what they are asking for and are more likely to become furious at a refusal because entitlement is associated with poor emotional management abilities.
The Facebook group "Single Mom is not a coupon code" records and publishes all the bizarre interactions sellers have had with women who attempted to use motherhood as a means of obtaining free goods. Let's get one thing straight: single mothers do frequently have a lot to contend with.
Trying to care for children alone while also attempting to fend for oneself is difficult. But as the saying goes, if you make the bed, you have to lie in it.
Therefore, trying to get other people to pay for the consequences of your own actions is highly entitled. So prepare to sigh as you scroll through.

The feeling of entitlement occasionally stems from the idea that the universe owes you something. After all, these women are hardly likely to choose single motherhood as their primary way of life.
As a result, individuals might make the excuse that they deserve a reprieve from God, karma, or another cosmic arbiter since they have suffered adversities in the past. When this collides with the fact that a seller won't just give out free stuff, it frequently results in some degree of wrath.

This conduct is not exclusive to single mothers; in fact, they often have a rationale for negotiating discounts. As noted by Dr. Alexandra Solomon, a relationship therapist, "People often seek to justify their requests based on their circumstances, which can lead to misunderstandings about entitlement." However, there are numerous individuals online who pursue free or discounted items simply because they feel entitled. According to financial expert Suze Orman, "Understanding the value of what we ask for can help us navigate our financial decisions more wisely." Please share your own "choosing beggar" anecdotes in the comments section below.
