A deranged DUmpette, tina tron, starts a minor kerfunkle over child behavior and using the term "spoiled rotten".
It threatens to boil over until a parenting expert, the crazy bald dwarf, happens along to explain things.
nadin's resume needs another updating, to include her expertise in child psychology.
(This is a long and very entertaining DUmp thread even without nadin's contribution. I recommend it. DUmmy tina tron is a noob, but she's either a great mole or a real space cadet.)

I've got a real problem with children being described as "spoiled rotten"
I've heard people describe children as young as 2 or 3 as being spoiled rotten, what a horrible monicker to throw onto a little human being just entering this world. Think about those words. It's what you would use to describe some bad meat or milk in the refrigerator. Some thing that is spoiled and rotten is something that you throw in the trash.

1. You obviously have not met some of the children I have.
When Fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in excess body fat & carrying a misspelled sign.

4. Really? Would "overindulged precious snowflake" work?

6. That is normal behavior for very young kids -- ages 2 to 5 or so.
No matter how great a parent you are chances are you have at least one war story where your kid pitched a major fit in public.

21. Sorry, it isn't. Maybe it's normal where you live but it's sure as hell isn't here.
Or in lots of other countries I visited.
Lots of disagreement among the DUmpmonkeys on what's normal child behavior.
Let's call on the world's foremost authority on child development and nuclear physics:

8. A qualifier, a 2-3 year old throwing a tantrum
Is actually explained by brain physiology and development. A six year old is a totally different story.
2-3 year olds are all about me...it is child development.

22. Yes thank you, it is.
I was described as spoiled rotten by my parents and my family. You know what they did to cure me of it? They beat the shit out of me.

31. I am sorry you were abused as a child
Yes, what you just described is child abuse.

Nadin's comment was amazingly short. There wasn't even room to misspell anything.

I'd use "spoiled rotten" to describe the residents of the DUmp, for several reasons.
They have the mentality of 2-3 years olds (it's all about ME!)
They demand people give them everything they want.
They throw temper tantrums when they don't get their way, and sometimes when they do get their way.
They smell of rancid meat.

FWIW, you , my fellow cavers,are much better, and nicer than I am when it comes to Nadine and her so-called "advice".

Deserved discipline for misbehavior, is not child abuse....

How many children does Nadin have?
One thing I learned about kids was that when I had my own, everything I thought I knew flew out the window.
And it happened with each one. What worked on kid number one, didn't work for number two or three and so on.
My biggest complaint about having kids, was that they didn't come with directions......... :-)

Maybe a small toss is in order.
