One day, a few weeks ago, I was heading into a Target store...on the way out was a parent, dragging some female brat who was having some hissy fit. I could hear some snippets of talk..
kid:"I want... you had no..."
mom: "I told you if you.... we would leave..."
I have this sadistic streak where I enjoy watching kids (who honestly have a good ass-smacking coming... NOT abuse mind you) get their come-uppance.
Needless to say, the kid noticed me watching her.. must have had some smirk on my face because the next words out were "look mom everyones laughing at you.." (wish I had dared to say, 'no, you little snot, I'm laughing at you')
However, that produced an additional punishment as mom yanked her arm causing the little brat to lose her balance and stumble a few paces until she regained her balance, leaving both to head on out to the parking lot. .. I did not watch any further (as that might have distracted the mom) but I have no doubt the kid would have difficulty sitting down before they even left the lot.. that was that kind of mom imo.
