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

OP, I hope you let her in the car, gave her some discipline and then didn't buy her the purse, maybe confiscated her other nice things you bought her that she clearly isn't grateful for, that should teach her to be content.

I'm sorry but that's just bad Parenting she's 12 whoop her ass and be a ******* Parent!!

Send the little shit to foster care for a week and then she will know how good life is, and how she should never pull that shit again.

And that's when my parents would've beat my ass.

Wow...you actually gave in to the spoiled brat? I would have left her there and made her WALK home. Either that or get her ass in the car, lecture her, and then punish/ground her. And DO NOT buy her anything! I know how it is to be 12 and envious of the "popular" crowd, but trust me, that isn't what life's about. Being popular is horribly overrated anyway. Some of those cliques are like cults, and not something you'd want your daughter mixed up in anyway. But seriously, please tell me you didn't give in to that kind of behavior. That's what's wrong with kids these days - they have no discipline.

The FML never said OP bought her the purse. What I think happened: OP told daughter to get in car. Daughter told OP to buy her the purse and then she would get in. OP said no. Daughter made fuss. Police saw, questioned OP.
