Answer 2

Spoilt Rotten

Answer 3

Spoilt rotten means the person gets everything and anything they want. A child who gets all the toys and things they want without having to save an allowance or do chores to earn it is an example.

Answer 4

A kid who is "spoilt (or spoiled) rotten" is a kid who always gets his/her own way, and the parents defend them against even the slightest possible or imagined offense against them. I had many spoiled kids as a school teacher, and I can tell you, by far, they are the worst kids a teacher can have. Worse than thugs, varments, anything. And you always end up in a massive arguement with their parents, who defend their kids behavior irregardless of the facts of the matter. It ALWAYS ends up being the teacher's fault, and many parents of spoiled kids go so far as to try to get the teacher fired. That's why teacher's HAVE to have UNIONS and a TENURE LAW, to protect them from these psycho parents, who think their kids NEVER do anything wrong.

Most people think that spoiled kids get everything they want, like toys, bicycles, material type of things. But that has very little to do with becoming spoiled kids.

A note to parents and everybody out there:

You don't spoil a kid by giving him THINGS, you spoil a kid by always giving them THEIR OWN WAY. There's a difference!

And you're not doing your kid any favorites by doing this. You raise a spoiled kid, and you'll find out later that what turns out is not exactly what you had in mind. And you have only YOURSELF to blame.

Answer 5

spoilt rotten is not good english it is a corruption, spoiled, as in rancid,spoiled as in ''spare the rod spoil the child'' the two words can have the same meaning rotten ,as in bad meat, so the saying to a child,' you are spoiled rotten'' is a reference to the child being allowed to get away with 'bad' behaviour until the childs character is spoiled.

the english have very many sayings that can have a direct opposite meaning to the context in which they are put.

like a ferret up a drain pipe for example

Pink Floyd. Rick Wright put out 2 solo albums and is working on a third. Syd Barrett put out 5. Gilmour did 3 and is working on another. Waters has 6 and even Nick Mason has 2 and wrote a book. While they all didn't leave, they did go on to have separate solo careers. edit: hey sarah

Answer 7

I think you will find that the saying "spoilt rotten" comes from the old days when Fruit, mainly apples, were stored in bad conditions and went rotten before they could eat or sell them. "spoilt" to the point of being inedible.

Answer 8

Actually, the term is "SPOILED ROTTEN" and basically it means someone who is PAMPERED and GIVEN EVERYTHING THEY WANT without having to work for it. A good example would be a young, rich kid whose parents give him whatever food he wants, more toys than he can play with in a lifetime, etc., etc.
