Default Re: Ignore the brad kid, ethical or not?

I believe this is what is known as a temper tantrum.

If you are absolutely certain that the child does not actually need something, I believe it is best to ignore them. Certainly you do not want to teach them that their crying and whining (for no good reason) will get them what they want. That is how you raise a brat.

Depends on the age of the child too of course.
