12812343, How old must a kid be before you can decide they an a-hole?
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Fri May-22-15 07:06 AM
It seems a bit aggressive to call a 4 year old an a-hole but can you say by 8 a persons a-hole tendencies are manifest?

a good kid go bad though (bad in the sense of becoming an A-hole) at least when they got through that stupid teenage phase.

12812386, depending on the environment, it can start by the first word.

12812412, My husbands niece is 8. I think he'd agree she's an asshole.

12812442, 3. And I'll tell you why.

If a child is truculent, combative and generally a little fucking jerk at age 3, you can no longer blame the 'terrible twos', and are officially looking at a tiny sociopath.

JUDGE HIM.

JUDGE HIM LOUDLY.

And hide your kitchen knives.
12812454, Naw terrible twos ain't as bad as kids at 3. I think 3 is the worst age.
Posted by Buddy_Gilapagos, Fri May-22-15 08:51 AM
I find at 4 they start to mellow out.

I've also seen some terrible 5-6 year olds grow out of it.

12812463, ...I've seen a trifling 3 year old mutate into a truly evil 9 year old

Like the kid grabbed his little brother by the balls and squeezed until he gave up his Nintendo DS.

I've been suspicious of all these little bastards since then.

Except mine.

He's an angel.

When he's sleeping.
12812467, Yeah 3 is much worse than 2
Posted by Paps_Smear, Fri May-22-15 09:04 AM
Never had much of a problem at 2.
at 3 my own kid had me questioning if she's an asshole or not, luckily she snapped out of it and is awesome now
12812465, There is a difference between a bad kid and an asshole
Posted by Paps_Smear, Fri May-22-15 09:02 AM
Sometimes kids get into bad shit no matter what the age. Call it curiosity that leads to something being broken or them doing things they shouldn't be.


Then there are the assholes. I really think 6 and up is a ripe age to know if your or someone else's kid is a piece of shit (yeah I said it).

Type of kid that makes you wish you were young again with the fight knowledge you have now.

Type of kid where you look at your girl like "look at him, he's doing that shit on purpose why won't they beat him?!"
