30 Infuriating Encounters With Parents Who Think They’re Above Everyone Else (New Pics)
Beggars can’t be choosers, or so the conventional wisdom goes. But what if one wanted to forgo not just conventional wisdom, but common sense in general? Parents can go a little crazy over their kids, but some take entitlement, demands, and absurdity to a new level.
This internet group gathers the most egregious examples of absurd entitlement and we’ve picked the best examples of parents in particular. Unfortunately, many adults think that just the fact that they have kids entitles them to special treatment and free stuff. When this delusion collides with reality, sparks can fly, so scroll down and get ready to roll your eyes at the most bizarre things parents have demanded without any real justification.

Women’s Feels Entitled To Free Ice Cream When She Sees A Young Girl Get Free Ice Cream

It seems they have the problem under control on their own.. i mean you just provided pictures of your family, just repeat the process.
What A Deal! Yoy Can Earn 52¢/Hour!
Fixing the post ... $25 (per day) ÷ 13 hours = $1.92/hr. ... ... The OP mistakenly divided 13 by 25 ... ... ... [Edit: This assumes a 5 day work week, ... but even if it was only for one day of work, $125 for 13 hours is $9.62/hr. which is less than minimum wage in 34 U.S. states.]
All these stories fall into the broader category of ‘choosing beggars,’ people who don’t seem to have the means to get what they want but will also turn down a good deal just because it isn’t perfect for them. On the surface, there is a sort of logic at play. Imagine going to a food court and asking every single table for a free meal. The vast majority will, at best tell you ‘no,’ some will probably flip you off and call you crazy. But you don’t need everyone to give you a free meal, just one person.
So by attempting this sort of ridiculous strategy at scale, you might find at least one person who will give you what you want. This is perhaps annoying to most of us since the average person wants to be helpful and polite and will feel bad for saying no. But it’s generally a waste of time that could be used to find or acquire the cash to just buy a meal yourself. In this article, we have a special breed of choosing beggars, not one that is playing the odds, but one that, for some undiscernible reason, thinks they are entitled to some sort of special treatment.
Asking Her Partner’s Ex Wife For Her Child’s Designer Clothes, Proceeds To Call Her A Silly Goose And Throw A Strop When She Doesn’t Get What She Wants
I seriously couldn't handle this much entitlement. Something would snap and I'd try to set her ego on fire. Metaphorically or physically.
But Muh Kids Birthday
"You're her parent. It's never too early to get her used to disappointment".
Love It When They Get Called Out
The common thread is that all of these are parents. And not just normal parents, but deeply entitled parents. This combination can be amusing from a distance, but deeply annoying if one has to deal with them up close. Studies show that entitlement is associated with poorer social engagement, more inappropriate behavior, and, most importantly, decreased emotional regulation strategies. If we can be permitted to flip the logic here, people who are socially inept might not even understand just how entitled they are acting.
Knew Her For Like 3 Days
I would be shocked if my mom had ever spent over $50 on one of my birthdays growing up. Homemade cake, enough pop/chips/etc for ~5 kids for a sleepover, couple of rented movies, and bam. Party.

Wow! If I'd been the girl's parents, I'd have reported the woman for approaching a minor in such a way (they may have done, hopefully).
Asking For Christmas Help
Nowt wrong with Lidl, I shop there all the time! Maybe I'm not entitled enough!
The origins of entitlement are pretty varied. Some use it as a bizarre coping mechanism to counter the fact that they haven’t gotten what they wanted in life. If we romanticize a belief in karma or cosmic justice, people who are down on their luck might believe that the universe, or more specifically a Facebook marketplace seller, owes them something. This is never actually the case, but it leads to a cycle where they think they are mistreated, leading to more entitlement. The engine for this whole psychology is simply delusions.
They Could Have The House Paid Off In Just 125 Years
Not Asking For Much
Get a stuffed toy, problem solved. Well, dog issue solved as there's a whole warehouse there to unpack
A stuffed toy would be much more appropriate since they clearly want to display piece and not a dog.
Load More Replies...DON'T BUY FRENCHIES. they are extremely miserable dogs and have to have c-sections to give birth. they have a hard time breathing and are always in pain. and dogs NEED vaccines if they want to live longer.
The idiot who wrote this long screed should not have a pet of any kind.
Load More Replies...“We don’t believe in vaccines” stfu lady also perfect baby yeah right more like spoiled brat.
But the breeder must follow strict Covid protocols B*tch that includes vaccines!
Load More Replies...I feel sorry for kids who have parents like this. Faith bordering on insanity, imo.
I feel more sorry for whatever poor animal ends up in their home as a pet.
Load More Replies...At 2 she probably can't even dress herself!
Load More Replies...Yeh they will claim the pup is possessed at some point regardless and God knows what they will, do to it then.....
Load More Replies...Gosh, I'm sorry, but we've decided to get out of the breeding game. If you'd like, we have a couple of perfectly well-mannered tree stumps we could offer you, for say, $200? You would have to come and extract them yourself, and make sure the surrounding landscaping remains undisturbed. A Momma bunny just had babies under one, so you would need to wait until they went out on their own. We would need to come to your home and see the exact place(s) you would be putting the stumps. They're very old, so they would need to be placed somewhere sheltered and out of a highly trafficked area. You would need to sign an affidavit stating that you would never chop them up for firewood, but would bring them back to us and surrender them.
House trained, obedience trained and tolerance (?) trained by 6 weeks old?
He 2 year old seems very “progressed” at such a young age, what with her knowing all about energy etc!!🙄 lol
"We don't believe in vaccines." Um, sorry Karen, vaccines are required by law for pets. Good luck getting anyone to let you have one of their precious babies.
yup. my state requires rabies vaccine by 4 months, if you don't there's a fine
Load More Replies...I hope someone will lock her up... it is the only place this creature/thing belongs...
She doesn't believe in vaccines, but wants the breeder to follow a COVID-19 sanitation protocol? Bitches be crazy
I feel so sorry for the poor kid. Imagine what future interviews for any friends will be like!
there are people who need to be on a black list to never be allowed around animals. those poor dogs
I'd suggest a Nintendogs I am pretty sure there is a frenchie in there. I would NOT sell a puppy or a dog to this person. The kid probably thinks a hug is squeezing the puppy til its eyes bulge then wonder why the puppy fights back.
Can you put in an order for me a man. I mean if you are going to Eugenics yourself a dog I'd like a man who's got all the c**p bred out of him too. Along with obedience trained please. Lmao
Uh kissing dogs, no. Satan, really? All Frenchies shed and alot. Maybe the kid needs a new home after reading this list of crazy.
Those poor 5 little bubbies that thought they found their forever home.... Sounds like they were way better off.
"We don't believe in vaccines..." but then "We also would require a sanitization protocol be followed for COVID-19?" So...does she believe in diseases just not the ability to vaccinate against them? I'm so confused by this entire letter.
When "light color eyes are a sign of satan" doesn't even stand out in the tsunami of ultra entitled crazy. No dog deserves that environment. I hope the breeder told her so.
I am at a loss to respond, even in my advanced age knowing that the world is full of crackpots and this person could be their leader.
Thank you for your interest in our dogs, in order to be shortlisted for considerations, we would require official IQ testing for your entire family, everyone must be certified IQ 150 and above, and from there we would also need to test your DNA for any possible questionable genes, after all our perfect puppies require the perfect families. Additionally please send us your recent photos taken not more than 1 week ago as we need to know if you have any colourings that we disagree with. As you said, light coloured eyes are sign of Satan!
Wow this lady is a piece of work. Also please stop supporting breeders.
What I really want to know is if she showed her crazy this early to the first five people and they still let her "try out" puppies.
PS: also the puppy must be for free because our extremely intelligent Jaxn Meighrie (pronounced Jackson Marie) would cry if her prefect anti-vaxxer parents have to buy a puppy instead of expensive stuff for her. The puppy need to handle an open heart surgery at week 9 and have yellow fur which glitters every time it shakes. Then the puppy needs to be a talented cook because we don't like to. The puppy must be born on Sunday morning after a night with new moon. But the date should not have a 4 in it because of the four apocalyptic horsemen.
PLEASE don’t buy flat-faced dog breeds! If you absolutely NEED a flat-faced breed, get one from a shelter so you aren’t supporting a breeder. However, be prepared for the massive amount of money you WILL need to spend on medical bills. An even better option would be to get an Olde English Bulldogge or a Continental Bulldog, which are bred to be much healthier versions of bulldogs and deserve to be supported.
Please put on the breeder's reply if there is any. Breeders can be brutal when it comes to their prized dogs, and I'd love to see what they said. Thanks.
This Grown Man Whining About A Baby Sitter That Asks For 3 Dollars An Hour
'Babysitting' is when you're there for a couple hours while the parents go out to dinner. If it's M-F from early morning to late afternoon, it's daycare.
On the other hand, people who grew up spoiled internalize the idea that they just deserve special treatment and struggle to comprehend that random people who don’t know them aren’t going to just hand over items or large discounts. We can all relate to the disappointment of not getting what you want, but most well-adjusted adults also understand that it’s generally the default setting. I wake up with the desire for a four-month paid vacation pretty much every day, but I don’t lose my mind when it doesn’t just materialize out of thin air for me.

This Choosing Entitled Parent Wantz Zoo Staff To W*nk Of An Elephant.. An Actual Elephant!... So Her Child Doesn't Ask Questions
Why are parents so freaked out about talking to their kids about bodies, sex, and stuff that is natural and part of life? Any question my Son has ever asked, we and we have given an age appropriate honest answer. We want him to grow up with the correct knowledge, trust us, and feel comfortable talking to us, so when he is older, he can feel will be more likely to talk to us about this stuff. Why would it be so hard to just say " that is the elephant"s penis" A 3 year old knowing what a penis, testicles, vagina, vulva, etc. is is not a bad thing.
She Would Probably Not Pay Either
It’s not just internet users that suffer from aggressive and entitled parents, research suggests that their children, the ‘card’ these adults often play, also end up doing worse. Parental engagement around the house tends to bring positive effects, but parental engagement at the child’s school was connected to lower academic performance. Potentially worse, the wrong kind of parental engagement also teaches this entitlement to the kids, who will no doubt then embody it in the future.

Add in the general ignorance of everyday life and you get people who think fifty dollars is enough for a week's worth of work with kids, that gaming systems should just be free, and next-day home delivery of items that they demand a 90% discount on. The cocktail of deranged and entitled does create some potent viewing experiences, but one can’t help but feel bad for the individuals who have to deal with these people. Even worse, the kids that will be raised by them in the fantasy world where one can get expensive items free of charge based on the concept of cosmic justice.

When You Have Already Heavily Discounted A 90% New Mattress And They Still Hit You With A Story For A Lower Price
This thread had me feeling stressed, gobsmacked and horror-filled (re: the babysitting ones). It was like watching a car crash and being unable to look away... 😲
To quote one of the posts, "These beggars be choosing"
Only got about a third of the way through this. Many of these are laughably fake, and the rest are just showing people being lousy humans. No thanks.
Agreed. Most of these are fake. The earlier versions circulating on other sites are better and more believable
