Sorry hit enter too fast. The mom reads this board.
Just think the type that are incredibly condescending. Talk down to most people. Talk about money, who paid cash for what. When I started this kid would actually lift his nose in the air and me and walk away. The mom was controlling had an eating disorder and stayed critiquing everything I ate.

Well you know what they say about the fruit doesn't fall far from the tree. At 4 he was just mimicking his parents. What did he/they do that was so bad?

I think I may have been the first person to ever tell that kid "No."
I've had parents tell me that nobody is allowed to tell their child no. To clarify, I always ask if it's about phrasing (ie. Can you walk and hold my hand please instead of No! stop running all over the grass!), but most of the families really don't want anyone to tell their child no in any form... I always wonder how they will do in school, but I won't take the position, so I'm left to wonder.
I'm the Pp you quoted I do the same. I rarely say no, I phrase it in a different way.
