She exhibited the same type of bratty sense of entitlement as the girl in Saks, while I was thinking "who paid for your flight to Hawaii and the Dior sunglasses on your head?" When the girl left to get something to eat, the couple sitting next to the mother made a comment and she just shook her head and said "she's starting college so she's under a lot of stress." <BR/><BR/>NAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510730519686659039.post-68930266645264247912007-09-04T08:51:00.000-04:002007-09-04T08:51:00.000-04:00Lady Tiara-As my Cusp story a while back was, this...Lady Tiara-<BR/><BR/>As my Cusp story a while back was, this is a criticism not of the girl so much as the parent. I don't know that I would have said "Mom, you know I don't *do* _______" to my Mother (in fact, thinking about the expression that would befall her face if I did, I know for sure I wouldn't), but you're right, she's a hormonal teenager who has a bit of license for that kind of behavior. <BR/><BR/>The mother, however, has no excuse for taking - and enabling! - that kind of attitude.Johannahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07954204237601410494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1510730519686659039.post-35149851001823151622007-09-04T08:44:00.000-04:002007-09-04T08:44:00.000-04:00when i read this, my first reaction was "stupid, o...when i read this, my first reaction was "stupid, overprivileged brat." but then i remembered having many conversations like that with my mother when i was a teenager (not over missoni and marc jacobs, of course). so, although i sort of want to smack the 15-year-old who gets to choose missoni, marc jacobs, or DVF, maybe back to school shopping with mom was just too much for her. or maybe that's just my own mother issues and she's really just a miserable brat.Lady Tiarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09979839525736893730noreply@blogger.com
