Kid: I want the glittery folders.
Mom: Oh honey, those are $4. I don't think so. These plain ones are $2.
Kid: Please!!!!!
Mom: No.
Kid: *tears* OMGGGGGGG. I hate you. You like never let me have anythinngggggggg.*stomp*
Mom: *sigh* okay.
Kid: Thanks mom!!!!

UGH.
BWAHAHAHA! My soon to be 6 year old tries to pull this shit all the time. I tell her she can buy stuff with her own money, or ask Santa for it. Thankfully she never throws a "fit" but she does get whiny. The "LOOK" usually shuts her up. I can deal with the resulted sulking.
