I remember having 1 temper tantrum. It's also the 1 time i remember getting spanked.

Oh dear, I didn't scream and yell but I did hit my mother in the back of the head with a hammer when she wouldn't stop for ice cream once. Note I only did it once.

In other words children can learn how to act better. I'm not sure adults can.

This x 1,000

I'm sure I was bratty at times when I was a child but I don't recall ever having temper tantrums.

So... yea... it baffles me how truly awful, childish, rude, and hateful some adults can be... in public... to other people. Its as if they have no conscience, self control, dignity, or empathy whatsoever.

And are they unhappy, just like every straight laced granny said they would be.

I was just thinking about the time I was 5 years old and had a temper tantrum in the shopping cart at the grocery store where my mother worked as a book keeper.
Oh right, that never happened and know this for a fact because I am still alive and breathing. Timmy wasn't that well behaved, nice kid but unstable, we all miss Timmy. lol
