One day at a daycare, an entitled parent showed up early to pick up their child. But they expected all the other kids to stop what they were doing and be quiet because their child was leaving. They made a big fuss when the daycare workers told them that wasn't how it worked. They seemed to think that the whole daycare should revolve around their family's needs.
Sure. There was an entitled parent at a sports event. Their child wasn't very good at the sport, but they demanded that the coach give their kid more playing time. When the coach tried to explain that there were other kids who were more skilled and deserved the time, the parent started yelling that their child was 'special' and should be treated differently. It was really embarrassing for their child.
In a store, an entitled parent let their child run around and break things. When the store clerk asked them to control their child, the parent got angry and said that it was the store's job to make it a 'child - friendly' environment. They refused to take any responsibility for their child's actions. It was quite a ridiculous situation. You know, most parents would apologize and discipline their child, but not this one.
Sure. At a clothing store, a 'Karen' wanted a dress in a size that was out of stock. Instead of accepting it, she demanded that the store find one from another branch immediately. When the salesperson said it would take a day or two, she started yelling that she couldn't wait and it was their fault for not having enough inventory. Another 'Karen' was at a movie theater. She complained that the seats were too close together and tried to move to an empty VIP section without paying extra.
Sure. There was a story about a man who thought he was entitled to a free meal at a restaurant just because he was a regular customer. He argued with the waiter for ages, but in the end, he was politely told that everyone has to pay. It was funny to see his shocked face when he realized his sense of entitlement was misplaced.
There was an entitled parent who thought their child should always win at sports events. At a little league baseball game, when the umpire made a fair call against their child, the parent stormed onto the field, shouting insults at the umpire and even trying to physically intimidate him. It was really embarrassing for the other kids and parents there.
I've heard of an entitled parent who, during a school field trip, demanded that the bus driver make special stops for their child to buy snacks and use the bathroom whenever the child wanted. The driver had a set schedule but the parent didn't care. Also, there was a parent who thought their child should be the star of every school activity. When the school organized a group project where everyone was supposed to have equal roles, this parent protested and tried to convince the teacher to give their child a more prominent role.
Well, there was this one time at a restaurant. An entitled parent demanded that the chef make a special dish not on the menu for their picky child. When the waiter said it wasn't possible, the parent started making a huge scene, saying things like 'Don't you know who we are?' It was so absurd.
Once, a parent entered a store with their child. The child knocked over a display by accident. Instead of apologizing, the parent told the store clerk that it was the store's fault for having the display in such an 'inconvenient' place for children. It was really a case of an entitled parent trying to shift the blame for their child's actions.
There was this instance where entitled parents went to a restaurant. Their child was being noisy and disturbing other customers. Instead of disciplining the child, they got angry at the staff when they were politely asked to keep their child in check. They felt it was their right to let their child do as they pleased. It's really a case of over - entitlement.
Sure. There was this Karen at a coffee shop. She ordered a latte and when it came with the wrong design on the foam (it was just a simple heart instead of a flower as she requested), she demanded a free drink and a gift card for the inconvenience. She said she was going to write a bad review if they didn't comply immediately.
Entitled parents' stories on Voiceyhere may also involve their interactions with other parents. They might be overly critical of other parents' parenting styles, thinking that theirs is the only correct way. This can lead to a lot of arguments and a breakdown in relationships among parents in the community. Additionally, their behavior can set a bad example for their children, teaching them that it's okay to be judgmental and uncooperative rather than inclusive and respectful.
My cousin went to meet his fiancée's parents. He wore new shoes that were a bit too tight. As he was walking in their garden, trying to make a good impression, he tripped over a small stone. He fell face - first into a flower bed. His clothes were all muddy and there were petals in his hair. The parents couldn't stop laughing.
