No they don't.[/quote]

100%. These folks will also look at other people's well behaved children and either assume they "got lucky" with chill personalities or convince themselves that their kids are terrors at home. It is not the case.

I have one kid whose oldest has become an absolute jerk as he approaches his tween years and she is constantly blaming it on the age. When he comes over to our house he regularly insults it or us, complaining that our house is too small or there is not enough to do (our house is small but they don't have to come, and we put out food and games and other kids seem to have a fun time despite the close quarters). He once said one of our kids was boring to our faces (the child in question is 4 years younger than him and probably seems boring to him, but he's old enough to understand that this is not an appropriate thing to say to people who are hosting you and feeding you and have been nothing but pleasant to you). We know lots of kids in this age group and none of them act like this. She's raising a spoiled brat and I think deep down she knows it, but when he does this stuff, she just rolls her eyes and is like "10 year olds! They're all like this."

No. They are not.[/quote]
