I don't really have time to watch that right now, but based on their opening paragraph which you posted...In my experience I have seen a lot of parents say no to their kids and many times they say no because to say yes to them would mean time to do something with the child and spend some time with them, and they no them, because their lazy. Then they wonder later on why is the kid grown up to be a brat? Geesh.
