Have you ever met a child so spoiled/so brattastic that you actually fear for the future of humanity?

Yeah but she's marginally talented. I'm talking about people who have nothing to offer humanity, like the Super Sweet 16 girls.
Um, Lindsay makes her own money?
One of my friends was actually on Oprah for one of those "I can't say no to my bratty child" shows. She definitely is. She's never had a job and near the end of the year, she mentioned how her parents had been giving her $100 a week for miscellaneous expenses. She was surprised that no one else received an allowance. "You mean, you guys don't all get weekly money from your parents?" No. No we don't.
I was volunteering at this ritzy school for special education. Tuition was like $30,000.00. Anyways so these two little girls were waiting for their "parents" to get picked up and this girl said to the other "Isn't that your nanny?" and she replied "Eww no that's my maid."
Those Super Sweet 16 kids need to be put on an island and left to die.
They are so horrible.
Instead of using your money for a huge party, put it some good use.
Atleast the Laguna Beach kids don't flaunt their wealth. These kids flaunt, flaunt, flaunt.
But I guess it's like Ulla says "If you got it, flaunt it!"
Is that the show that was on "The Soup" last weekend, in which some girl threw a fit because her mom got her the wrong Lexus for her 16th birthday and therefore ruined her whole party?
Bring back the guillotine.

there was a recent Super Sweet 16 where this little bitch's mother bought her some sort of car (A Lexus, I think...) and she had a complete nervous breakdown because she wanted the car DURING her party, not BEFORE.
MTV used to be so cool. They used to have stuff like THE STATE and THE BEN STILLER SHOW and BEAVIS AND BUTT-HEAD. What the hell happened?

baha that's what i get for posting too sloth-i-ly
Ah, well, at least you got the story right. I was going from a memory in which I wasn't paying that close of attention the first time around.

i'm not sure how spoiled this is, but i knew a guy who was so incredibly lazy that, during a movie, instead of getting up and buying some snacks from the concessions center when he got hungry, he proceeded to eat his entire Sunkist can.
I get so repulsed by those shows. I'll tell you what a good show would be:
The first half could be the same, but the SECOND half should show what happens when they have to deal with real life and get a rude-ass awakening.
Schadenfreud to be sure, but I'd watch.

i think the problem is that so many people, not just these horrible horrible children, expect everything handed to them. life is what you make it and you have to work as hard as you can for things to happen. there are full-grown adults i know who still believe this and who want everything to be easy.
there's a quote from the extremely underrated movie THE WEATHER MAN that i think applies well here:
"the right thing to do and the easiest thing to do are rarely the same thing. easy doesn't enter into grown-up life."

I was in the Coach store a few weeks ago and a young girl was on a shopping spree with her mother for her 7th birthday. She was allowed to buy two purses.
I guess it's all relative, and she could have been a perfectly nice kid, but damn. I don't get it. I guess I appreciate that I can buy these things on my own now. No matter what my financial circumstances, I would never buy my CHILD designer handbags! She's not even in high school. She was SEVEN! What does a seven year old need with designer bags? At that age I was getting Barbie dolls and board games as gifts.
Maybe it's more about the parents showing off.
Parents showing off.
I went to school with some of the most extremely spoiled kids on the planet.

I agree, shira. I think it's great to be loving, warm and nurturing with your children. But too many people are so caught up in being "friends" that they forget what it means to parent!

That would be an amazing show, tazber
Wait a second, Cruel -- this dude sat and ate aluminum? That's not spoiled or lazy. That's deranged.
Occasionally I go to a very upper-class mall near Denver and I see a lot of tweens with Louis Vuittons. LOUIS freakin' VUITTONS. Good God. And they're always the girls who cake their cute li'l kid faces in more makeup than the average hooker on Colfax...

Friend parents are complete dicks. Kids need real PARENTS not a friend. There will be plenty of that later.
