These 10 Kids Were Insanely Spoiled Rotten

Babies don't spoil, but you can definitely ruin your kids by not giving and enforcing boundaries and by never, ever, ever saying, "no." It's incredibly common for families with a lot of money (or at least a lot of credit) to always give their kids what they want, no questions asked. Dr. Madeline Levine, a renowned child psychologist, emphasizes, "When children are given everything they want, they miss out on learning the value of hard work and resilience" on her website madelinelevine.com. What an incredible disservice this turns out to be in producing a functioning, empathetic, logical adult who understands how the world works! News flash: if you never set boundaries for your kids, they won't learn what boundaries are! For more insights on parenting, Dr. Jane Nelsen, a parenting expert, states, "Setting limits is a way of showing love to our children" on positivediscipline.com.

"What's the most spoiled kid you've ever come across?"

1. I want it NOW.

“A girl in my grade broke or lost her phone six times in the past year, and her parents replaced every single one. The last time she broke it (about two months ago), she complained because she got an iPhone 6S instead of the new one.” blogspot

2. "I'm on a boat, motha f**ka, look at meeeee"

“I have a billionaire customer with four kids, all of them pretty spoiled, but the youngest once said to me spitefully, ‘We’re going on Tiger next week, and you’re not allowed to come.’(Tiger is the name of their yacht in southern Italy.) It’s not just that he’s spoiled that gets to me; it’s the fact that he knows it and rubs it in.” giphy

3. Me, Me, Me.

“I was a camp counselor for a while and had the granddaughter of the man who owns Torké coffee one week. I don’t know how materially spoiled she was, but I was baffled that the kid could not understand that having a rich grandpa does not entitle her to use the only working tetherball alone, just because she demanded it. I had to have a ten-minute conversation with her during playground time about how, at camp, everyone is equal. Thankfully, she was fine the rest of the week!” giphy

4. This is MY space. Even if it's actually not.

“I went to high school with the son of the owner of a large TV company. He thought he should be allowed to sit alone in the classroom surrounded by empty desks. I had the ‘privilege’ of sitting in front of him and was constantly harassed with attacks from his ruler and pens if he thought I was even remotely leaning back.” kym

5. Yikes.

“My husband and I moved to a new city and spent a lot of time with his gal pal from high school. She had a toddler son who was absolutely atrocious and without any mental disability. She threatened him with punishment all the time for his behavior but never followed through. We would often meet her for dinner, where he would throw a tantrum, and she’d say, ‘If you keep acting like that, we’re leaving.’ He kept acting up, but she never left with him.”“She had him with a live-in partner who is Cuban and grew up with a ‘Cuban boys should be treated like gods’ mentality. One time we saw her get upset with the kid for throwing a toy at her head, only to see the kid’s dad yell at her, ‘No! You shouldn’t have given him that toy! Now YOU apologize to HIM!’ The kid was in a stroller until he was five because he couldn’t be trusted not to run off into traffic when they were out in public.”“The last time we hung out with them, we went mini-golfing. Each time one of us hit our ball, he would snatch it and throw it across the course. I wised up to this and immediately went to pick up my ball for safekeeping after I hit it. As I was picking it up, he tried to grab it out of my hand and fell over lightly. He laid on the ground, pounding his fists and crying. His parents looked at me like I was the a**hole. We ended up limiting our time with them as a result of the kid’s bad behavior.” gfycat

6. Go to your ROOM? Fine.

“My friend’s ten-year-old son is a brat and is always getting sent to his room for one thing or another. The other day, I peeked into the kid’s room. Laptop, desktop, TV, and three game systems. Oh my God, what a horrible punishment. Amnesty International is going to write letters about this.” giphy

7. Sometimes you just do enough learnin'

“I gave my nephew some books, and he said, ‘Oh man, are you kidding me?’ and threw them on the floor.” giphy

8. Excessive ASF

“There was a kid at my school. When he was 14, he had a learner’s permit, but his parents got him a Mercedes-Benz G-Class. Every day he drove it to school and was determined to park it in the parking lot to show it off. So he had his housekeeper drive to school with him, and her son drove a car behind her to take her back home (which was only about two miles away from our school).” giphy

9. Holy crap, learn to say no.

“I worked at a chocolate shop where we made milkshakes. This lady walked in with two spoiled brats. They ordered one milkshake of the classic flavor and the other ‘birthday cake’ flavor. Well, being a tiny store with only one blender, I made the classic one first so that I could make the birthday cake without rinsing the blender in between.So the boy got the classic flavor, and the girl got the birthday cake one, but as soon as I gave the boy his milkshake, the girl started screaming because she wanted to get hers first. To make up for that, I put some sprinkles on top of the whipped cream (we only had a little bit of sprinkles left, so I’d been saving them). When I gave her the milkshake, she took a sip and then started crying again because the cup was ‘too big.’The mom asked me to give her a smaller cup, and I was like, sure, whatever, and I gave her a tiny cup we use to make hot chocolate. Well then the girl started screaming that she wanted whipped cream on top (in pouring the milkshake out, the whipped cream was ruined). I complied and topped off the cup with whipped cream.Well, now she’s crying again because she wants more sprinkles on top of the whipped cream. At this point, I’m getting SUPER ticked off. I had used the last of them to top off her drink. So I said to the mom, ‘Sorry, I’m actually all out of sprinkles,’ and then looked straight at the little girl and said sternly, ‘But if you don’t stop whining right now, I’m going to have to ask you to leave. We have a ‘no-whining’ policy in this chocolate shop.’Well, THAT was apparently a mistake because the mom was furious that I tried punishing her spoiled brat, lol. After snapping at me for not talking to her daughter that way, she said, ‘We’re leaving. Give me a lid.’ Well, the tiny little cup I had given her to pour the milkshake into was literally too small for a lid. I apologized and said that I didn’t have lids for that cup size. The girl SCREAMED and said, ‘IF I DON’T HAVE A LID, I’LL SPILL,’ and then proceeded to dump the cup of milkshake onto her lap to prove a point…” tenor

10. Jeez, poor dog.

“I used to babysit these kids. The one girl didn’t feel like doing her homework, so I told her we only had a couple of problems left, and I had been helping her, so it was going to go by quickly, and we could play games as soon as she was done.In response, she told me she wished I was dead (this girl was six years old), threw a bunch of crackers on the floor, kicked her dog in the nuts, and said she was going to blame it all on me and get me fired. Of course, her parents didn’t believe I threw food on the floor and assaulted their dog, but there were absolutely no repercussions for what she did. They just turned their heads, put their hands on their hips, and were like, ‘What did we say about lying?’ And that was it.” giphy
