Tantrum

By brokedad - This FML is from back in 2013 but it's good stuff - United States

Today, I was questioned by police for forcing a 12-year-old to get in my car. That 12-year-old is my daughter, who refused to get in until I agree to buy her a highly expensive purse just to become popular. FML

Best shoes, fancy purse, latest iPhone they all make kids the envy of other less fortunate $$$ kids. But, did you give in?

True! I didn't hold a purse until i was 16

what is it with wanting to become popular, I say its way better to have a few friends that are your best friends that you can tell anything too, than to have like 20 crappy friends. its quality not quantity.

Drive of without her next time, that'll teach her a lesson

Kids these days think that "things" are just handed to them. When I was in school I either worked for what I got or I went without it. The entitlement issues kids have now is way out of hand.

I feel like this situation has happened before, maybe not with the cop there, but if your daughter thinks it will work then it's likely a learned behaviour that you've given into in the past, even babies learn if they do a certain thing to get their way that they can do it again. You should really stop.

I never carried a purse till I got my driver's license. So I could hold my wallet, car keys, registration...etc why would a 12yr old need a purse?

Sometimes kids just don't understand what it's like to earn popularity or nice things. I'd try to show her what it's like to live without so she can appreciate what she has.

**** your life for spoiling your daughter like that.

Why would u even bleach though! Like stupid much?!
