In reply to the discussion: Adults that spoil kids aggravate me [View all]onpatrol98
(1,989 posts)Just a wee bit, self centered and self absorbed. Maybe my friends are just good parents. I truly enjoy their kids. I like the performances. When they answer the phone, I do entertain and listen to them until mom comes to the phone. They can play ball in my yard. And, I have seen bratty kids turn into nice adults...and a few quiet ones I wouldn't trust alone with my cat. Kids are kids. You never quite know how they'll turn out. But, I enjoy them. Think of the innocence of the children that may have encountered self absorbed adults without ever realizing the seething that existed inside of them because...wait for it, they answered a phone or weren't quiet enough.
Give me spoiled kids over spoiled adults any day. I can avoid spoiled children. Spoiled adults are EVERYWHERE. They're at work, they blog, they drive cars while texting, they cheat on their spouses, they rant about nonessential stuff...100 times worse than kids.
