[@sandistonge165]

I can understand the automatic response to feel bad for the parents for having to live with that girl or both those girls acting like that. But the truth is they act like that because they've always been allowed to act like that. This kind of behavior should have been nipped in the bud. You do not have to beat children or abused them to get them to stop that but there must be consequences for actions that's how we learn

[@MR-xf8xg]

Yes. And that is true about most of us. It takes something extra to be able to appreciate what you have by hearing the experiences of others. Most children want what they want and takes good level headed people with good self esteem to say no to kids early on and help the kids regulate their response to no in a respectful manner. Who came up with the idea that being friends is more important that directive parenting? Any parent that allows their child to yell or curse at them even once deserves what they get.

[@wontsufferfools9332]

Discipline when they are young lasts a lifetime Too many parents have "fuzzy rules". This is unfair to the child. The best thing is give direct, clear rules and stick with them. It's hard to deny your child a fun experience because they broke a rule, but it usually only happens once. Of course they try to push the boundaries, very normal, but "stepping outside the circle" has consequences a parent must stick to. A parent must be consistent or you wind up with things like what that girl is doing. I firmly believe that their are no "bad" children. Only bad parents/parenting

Ted Bundy suffered from antisocial personality disorder, or short, he was a psychopath. Laws and moral didn't mean squat to him, simply because he saw himself superior to them. You are quite right that THAT wasn't his parents fault. This girl, however, hasn't had any consequences to her actions. Which IS her parents responsibility. If she is so out of line that they can't help her themselves, well, then let her go to jail, to juvenile! I'm pretty certain that THAT would make her realize "hmm, perhaps this wasn't the best idea".

Well most families in America are not like this. If I ever spoke to my grandmother that way I would have gotten not only a well deserved smack on the mouth. My aunts and uncles would have tore my behind up. My siblings would have stopped talking to me or a certain amount of time after getting mad at me telling me to shut my mouth. AND IF I BROKE THE LAW LIKE SHE HAS DONE MY MOTHER WOULD HAVE MADE SURE THAT I WAS ARRESTED AND WENT TO JAIL. And no there wasn't any physical punishment in our home. WE JUST KNEW BETTER THAN TO FK UP OR WE WOULD GET IT. My great granny she was and honorary old woman and she would give it to you real quick she never actually hit me or my siblings with that hickory stick but all she had to do was keep it in her hand. We knew that she used it on my father and his brothers and sisters & we didn't want her using it on us. WE WERE TAUGHT TO RESPECT OUR ELDERS AND DO WHAT OUR PARENTS TOLD US TO. When my mom took us to church if we acted up we got a hard pop on the leg or butt .. but that's the only real physical discipline I can remember getting. My mom knew grounding us and taking things from us worked a lot better. Cs not being able to go outside and play with our friends or something else is what upset us. This girl wouldn't make it one day in jail cuz they would look at her pretty face and that smug spoiled puss she has mastered and they would beat her up, &/or some woman wld make her their husband. Yes that happens in county as well, so she wouldn't even need to go to prison to experience that😜🤪

My daughter grew up with good parenting, firm boundaries and discipline. But one day everything was completely flipped. She acted out and we even had to call the police. Come to find out a few months later after we put her in mental health hospital, that she had been raped by boyfriend and he was still controlling her. She finally got away from him emotionally, then became normal again. So sometimes it's not bad parenting but some type emotional trauma.

No more like little devil 👿

discipline your child enough to where they know they are not the ones in control ..if you don’t , you end up with this . once they get grown and act like this , then you just kick them out 🤷🏽‍♀️ cause ain’t no way boy .

[@bebacaribena]

If I dared to do that at my home, I would end eating applesauce before 30 y/o... without teeth

[@blossom1643]

She thinks she can do anything she wants. Lotta 2 year olds think that.

[@SJWieczorek]

To scream like that as a teenager is just ridiculous

[@1jackvalley580]

This is a typical behavior how my sister was and continued this behavior through adulthood. She never worked one day in her life, was given every bit of money 💰 that was supposed to be for caring for a family of 5. It destroyed the whole family, the other kids moved to the grandparents to get away from the destruction. Eventually my parents passed away and my Mom left the home and everything else only to my spoiled sister. She eventually lost the house due to not being able to pay the taxes. I don't know where she is to this day. I learned very young it was extremely important to work hard and to be independent. I left my Grandmother's house and was working and living on my own at 17. Sadly my parents created all of the destruction by never saying NO to one child and it turned her into a destructive entitled monster. Please teach all your children EQUALLY and consistently at a very young age what NO IS!! Both parents must agree to be consistent about saying NO and starting at a very young age

My 2 year old son screams like that when you take something away from him

[@moparqween8824]

Nope. Yell at me like that. And my belt comes out

[@yunosdoll]

It doesn’t matter how she grew up. Alongside domestic battery, grand theft auto, etc, it doesn’t give her any sort of right to excuse her behavior. Especially her sister.

[@genchandler5208]

How the middle daughter threw a major screaming tantrum. That actually reminded me how I got bullied and teased by my little brother. I always hated him. When my parents blamed and found both of us guilty, it made me feel hurt and betrayed. I threw a tantrum the same as Liz did in that clip.

[@davidroberts4248]

Well I understand why these parents gave up, the headache made them give up.

[@marksacher3866]

When she returned to the set, why applaud for someone who behaves that way? Very odd.

[@Mplanelover]

That is just what I thought. I would of loved to have been in the audience with a bag full of tomatoes.

[@KatTheLavaGirl]

My Polish Mom would’ve brought out the wooden spoon if I even dared to act like that

[@Mrs.Currie]

Mine too. Maybe the reason we never dared act like that is because we knew very early on that it wouldn't be tolerated. The parents let her get away with too much and now she's an out of control brat.

[@ShesAmberkimly]

If it's this severe-- give up custody!! And send her to a facility. It's abusive on both end. Cut ties!!! I don't give a damn family don't mean you stick through the madness and abuse !!! Madison grown enough to beat her parents .. kick rocks. This is a up n coming karen!!

[@rnbsteenstar]

I would rather scream into my own pillows, it sure beats this amount of evil. And if I need space, politely say, "hey I'm in a bad state right now and I need to take some space so that I don't say or do something that I'm going to regret later cuz I don't want to do that!"

[@b.rosario972]

Why did they hide the face of the worst one out of the two?

[@victoriajenkins1424]

If someone who is the same size/weight as me or bigger-not difficult with my petite frame-and they start throwing and swinging items weapons, they’re getting taken down or tackled. Even if they’re my children.

[@dr.doppeldecker3832]

Her whole family has this "i can't take this anymore" look on their face...

[@celladora31]

They only act like this with people who let them get away with it. When they do it to a stranger they will be hit very hard by reality.
