[quote=Anonymous]   Yes I was just going to say here we go again, celebrating plain old brattiness. And once again, the issue isn't the child's behavior as much as it is the parents delighted response.
   There would not be a time when a child of mine would have thrown down a gift, no matter how small, without eliciting a response from me. The item would be picked up and returned to said child's hands along with a calm and gentle discussion about how people give things to people they care about.  Gratitude would be explained in simple terms. If it was thrown again, the item would disappear for a spell. 
    We've discussed the graduation episode, and my thought is that while it would be understandable to skip the ceremony based on a variety of reasons, getting up and walking out is just plain rude and inconsiderate.
    I believe that this is the kid who got a DUI? I wonder if Mom giggled through that one? Entitled people love to project themselves onto their kids as an extension of their own privilege. I hope Caleb can figure things out before he does something that his mom can't undo. I think the DUI is a logical progression for the little kid whose mom is so proud that he doesn't give a "f".[/quote]
