people would see me a brat at times especially the way i move and when talked though i am well loved by my family but my mom doesn't approved of us being brats. LOL. we may get what we want at times but we were raised with good values and respect for elders. maybe i act like a brat at times but not to predominant. :) are you a brat? or should i say is there a bratty side in you?

Hi there kenchiprincess! I think that there is that bratty side in all of us. It's just that we differ in the level of how bratty we are at times. In my case, there really is a very brat side of me. Sometimes people mistake me for being arrogant because of it. The truth is I only act like a brat when I do not agree with something or someone. But I rarely act like a brat. I think I have outgrown that to a certain extent.

I can really say that I am a brat. My mom raised me and my elder brother to get what we want all the time because they promised to themselves to give us a comfortable life that they never experienced before. Until we grew up with that kind of attitude. I can say that we had a great life because both of our parents worked with a very nice job and salary. But it changed when my dad lost his job and in the same time my mom gave birth to our younger brother. It was very hard for us. We have to live a life that we never used to have. It was a huge adjustment. Now that I am married, my husband said I am really a brat! hahaha. Still get what I want. If not, I would get upset. Which I do need to change that. I know not all things I want, I can have it. Maybe being the only daughter is one of the good reasons why I am being spoiled by my mom and now, my husband!

getting everything that you like and want doesn't mean that your are a brat. :) you really have to be thankful for having a mom and a husband who gives you everything that you want. i think what is important is you know your limitations. thanks for the post and have a great day!!! happy mylotting!!1

I am exactly like you. I can be bratty sometimes but I was raised in a well loved home with good values, morals and respect for the elders. I'm trying to raise my daughter the same. And like you, I did get quite a bit of what I wanted and that's what makes me a little bratty now. I still expect it. I don't help much when it comes to my daughter either. I want her to have anything she wants and sometimes its quite pricey but I try to do what i can. I think I'm creating amonster but at least she has good values and respect. I think we all have a bratty side to us. That's what happens when parents and family members give you things!

i totally agree with you. there is nothing wrong about getting what we want as long as we have respect for others and we do not step on other peoples shoe. :) thanks for the post!!!

I can be a brat sometimes. I get what i want. Even at work i am kind of spoiled and get what i want. I do have respect for other people though. My friends even say I'm a brat and so does my mom! I am not that horrible though. I don't give people an attitude or anything like that i just know how to get what i want.

hi there, being used to get what we want most of the time is not really that bad. not this reminds me of clueless movie. they are a bunch of brats and they have bad attitudes towards others. :) i think what matters most is that we don't hurt other people on the process of getting what we want. :) have a great day!!!
