I really hate when people use the word “diva” to describe/explain the lack of discipline they provide their children.

This kid is going to grow into an adult that everyone hates.

Hearing a toddler yell things with a Southern accent is the funniest thing I’ve ever heard 😂

When the mom said she felt so bad for taking the pacifier from her daughter so she gave it back. What she really ment to say was “I was so tired of listening to her scream and cry and couldn’t be strick enough to stick with it and put my foot down...so I gave it back to her”

So sad to see this. She is a product of her parents behavior and no accountability. I hope things change for this child.

This is a mom living vicariously through her child, excusing bratty Behaviour for being “sassy”, “tired”, “independent”. Poor kid just needs to be a kid. No wonder she still needs her pacifier.

“I got to meet Mackenzie ShE tRiEd tO bITe Me” the fear in that kids face when she said that is saying something

By age 4 both my kids had manners and definitely didn't talk back like this. This is the parents fault.

As a Child Behavioural Therapies Specialist and Speech and Language Specialist this absolutely kills me. Working with parents like her that enable these behaviours is even harder than working with such a difficult child. Children are developing and can change, parents are much harder to change and educate.

She also speaks and sounds like she been sitting at a bar for 30 years.

McKenzie is 16 now and is in high school. She is no longer the only child (3 siblings I believe). She stopped doing pageants a really long time ago, and she is a lot sweeter in person than this show portrayed her at age 4. Edit: Time flys lol

The “yOu ArE dRiViNg Me NuTs“ really got me!😂

Makenzie has been living rent free in my head for the last 10 years

LMFAO THAT GIRL AT THE END SHES LIKE “she tried to bite me” THAT IS KILLING ME

Every time Mackenzie talks all I hear is ‘that’s my purse! I don’t know you!’

Bless this little girl's heart she said she doesn't like sugar in her drink and yet she's seen at the pageant drinking a soda that has sugar in it ☺️

Little brats. These are the type of girls that grow up to be entitled and horrible/bullies. If they haven't any respect for the parents then how the hell will they have respect for others!

Its hard to keep a 4 year old in a good mood?! Childhood is so short, it only lasts a minute. You don't have long to instill good values. This kid is RUNNING the adults. So sad

ik she is super obnoxious but the “Oh No i can’t do tht im sorry” was so hilarious to me. such a mood

It’s just really embarrassing for the mother to have this kind of child. The way she has acted around the girl who did her nails, and the girl who did her hair…it’s just unnecessary and unacceptable

I dare a kid to bite my child. Like Jesus you gotta be a shitty parent if your child is going around biting people. That’s shameful.

This girl is now in high school! Crazy how fast times goes by.

I hate that people justify bratty behaviour by saying their kid just has a 'big personality'.

I remember my mother entering me into a little girls' beauty pageant at Butlins. In those days things were different. We were all dressed up prettily and in our best clothes with our hair neatly combed, but there were differences to what I see on this video. We were not permitted to wear makeup, and we didn't parade as if we were on a cat walk, being encouraged to move our bodies provocatively. We were silmply lined up on the stage and there we stood in front of the judges. It was actually very modest and it was still innocent fun. We were treated as children. We were not expected to behave like adults. And no one 'bit' or attacked each other. I have kept a photograph of that contest. After that came the 'knobbly knees' contest. What fun days they were!

McKenzie is an old southern outspoken grandmother that ain't no 4 year old little girl lol... she's so rude and was making me laugh the entire video lol... send her to a black mother lol

McKenzie is very very stressed. Her mother is living her dreams through her

From what I have gathered Makenzie grew up to be a down to earth beautiful young lady who treats people with respect!! I wonder if she has ever watched these clips of herself and got so so embarrassed about the way she acted back then!!

Calling McKenzie a "diva" is her mother's way of saying "I cannot be bothered to discipline my "pwecious widdle girl"

If McKenzie were a member of my extended family, she would be barred from my home. My dog is perfectly behaved, and I would not tolerate a child who bites and has tantrums!

Diva? More like Monster. My grandma would have sent my butt to get a switch, and best not fetch a twig, lol.

"I'll be doing her nails today" her face says "I'd rather be fed to a hungry alligator".

All I could hear when she said “I won’t do what you tell me” is Bobby from King of the Hill saying “that’s my purse I don’t know you”😊

I Love her! She is a fine teen now... is funny but she used to sound like a smoker old lady😂

Makenzie needs manners, rules, not to sass and yell. Mother is creating a monster with no consideration or compassion for family, other people or animals as well. Beauty and will are going to fade, but a charming personality lasts a lifetime.

Makenzie was bratty most of the time, but she was one of those girls who stood out on Toddlers and Tiaras!

Honestly this kid just has spirit. She is clearly settings boundaries with her caregivers who then ignore her boundaries and punish or scold her for it. She clearly stated multiple times she didn't want to be doing this shit. Honestly it's a weird world when child abuse is televised for amusement. Most normal people see this and watch in horror. It's not admirable to destroy your child's ability to set clear boundaries,it's a very healthy skill we make our kids unlearn and it's dumb. There's many adults in the world who are not capable of setting or apparently respecting propels boundaries as a result. Boundaries are healthy and kids should be aloud to say no

My favorite was the next competition when she didn't win anything, the look on her face, her mom's meltdown....it was the best.....too bad it wasn't included in this clip

These kids need discipline

I can’t believe the mother uses “she’s an only child” as an excuse for behaviour. No, dude, the only reason she’s like this is because you *literally* responded to her saying “I can do whatever I want” with an “okay”.

Makenzies me when my mom makes me get up for a cheer competition at 4am when I perform at 8pm

Her mother never listens to her. Makenzie is trying to tell her mom she doesn’t want to be in a pageant but her mother keeps pushing her

You can’t be weak as a parent! It’s hard to wean kids from babyish habits but you gotta be strong. Forget the pageants and teach her how to behave!

Tell me your bad at parenting without telling me your bad at parenting:

The camera man zooming behind her as she sprints around the house had me laughing.

When I was 5 there was a neighbor girl that had a biting problem. My mom told her mom, that if she bites me again, I’m gonna pop her. Well she started to go in to bite me and I popped her a good one and gave her a black eye. She never bit anyone again after that, lol

The parent's need to take a parenting class ASAP! I hope for the sake of McKenzie's adult teeth they stopped giving her a pacifier!

Having a pacifier that late messes up teeth a lot! There's really easy and gentle ways to wean them off too, so sad.

She’s 4. I mean she’s still learning to manage emotions

Good lord...🙄 I don't know why these parents bother when a kid acts like that. I have 4 girls and could think of nothing more stressful that having to keep a 4 year old entertained for a day of hair makeup and gown changes. It's madness! This stuff is for adults not for children

I love the spa the aunt has created.

Brat is a better word than diva to describe this child. Mom is gonna be in BIG trouble as she gets older

5:48 me when my parents ask me to get ready for school 😭

When she says "she won't do it FOR ME" that says it all 😆 So happy my parents were Inteligent people with a amazing life of their own 🤣

These poor kids have smoker voices because they scream all the time

The nail technician looked so stoked to be doing her nails lmao

my daughter calls out for her pasi like that when its lost like its gunna respond😂 its so cute

Why did I just randomly laugh when her crown fell off😂

This poor little one needs to be a child 😢 prime example of a mother living her life through her child

cannot believe she is so proud of her handywork

The whole pageant thing is horrendous it’s teaching the kids that it’s all about looks an being superficial.. the opposite to what’s important

"Oh no, I can't do that i'm not doing that" "You are driving me nuts" "Oh my gosh; leave me alone people" :l

Makes me so grateful for my mother.. She told me yes, you're blessed with good looks- however integrity and kindness along with keeping Every promise you make- above all putting God 1st is so much more important. God bless my amazing mother.

This is why if my child wants to be in a pageant, I will make sure they really want to and not force them into it. If that’s a passion and a dream to my child wishes to commit to, I will be supportive.

Makenzie has the voice of an Angel!😂

The nail technician blinked for help💀😂

Diva or spoilt brat? Let any child bite mine and see me switch up on their parents.

I showed this to my elderly dad he laughed Soo hard, he couldn't belve she was only 4 talking that way to her mom .

The four year old STILL has a pacifier?!?!?! This is a mother who gives their child WHATEVER they want in order to avoid any conflict. A child who is raised like that has no hope as an adult. Because in the real world, a screaming fit will NOT get you your own way, it's only going to get you laughed at.

Children should also be judged for their BEHAVIOR

I'm not doing what you tell me! I can do whatever I want! Once she regains consciousness.... she'd be a very well behaved and respectful little girl. At 4:38 did she call her mother a "bitch''?

Oh I feel so bad for this mother when this little one is a teen!!! Having a “MIMI” at this age is terrible for her teeth and her speech. Mom “felt” bad so gave her back. Lord lord lord! Praying her this momma now!!!!

There’s a difference between diva and demon lmaooo💀💀😭

Her teeth are going to be so messed up from that pacifier.

I would love to see a Jo Frost reaction to this family

When a single toddler has more drama and attitude than every dance mom to ever exist.

It's Bobby Hill's evil twin 😂

The parents better get ahold of this little girl!!! Eden looked beautiful as always.

That's one child that needs to be taught some discipline! So mom, your going to regret it one day if you don't do something about her attitude now. The world does NOT revolve around her!

Omg this was hilarious! She makes good TV there's that. I'm surprised she acted so good on stage.

Her mom is such a doormat

3:46 Melissa: you don’t like sugar? Mackenzie: mm-mm Melissa: you know what’s in cookies? Mackenzie: mm-mm Melissa: sugar Melissa: you like cookies? Mackenzie: well I don’t want sugar in drink!🙄

How can u as a parent put make up on a child and think it's ok this is not going to end well for these kids reality is not easy

I can't even begin to imagine how out of control this child will be when she hits the teenage years.

She needs to discipline this kid. Not hit or yell at just set some MAJOR boundaries. This kid walks all over her

They all need a good psychologist, not beauty contests. A nervous mother, a hyperactive and over-excited child. Nightmare

Lol I laughed so hard when the lil blonde hair girl said she tried to bite me 😭

She’s not a brat … she’s just trying to break free of all of those hands on her

actually everyone mackenzie is a young adult and shes so sweet! she loves god and she is so pure💓

Makenzie is a child. Mom is a diva. I wonder how many p3do's get off on watching these children be put on display. Some people shouldn't breed.

What ugly behavior! Mom needs to get a grip on that behavior NOW or she's going to be taking abuse from her daughter when she's gotten too old to do anything about it. Not to mention the other people that will probably end up taking abuse from her due to her parent's lack of discipline.

She's too old for a pacifier one thing people need to do is never ever EVER spoil your children!

A four year old with a pacifier? Damn

A 4-year-old should play outside - not get a pedicure! 🤦🏼‍♀️

When she grows up she's going to frequent the traffic POLICE guarantee!!!!!

I'd have CPS called on me....BIG facts 🤦‍♀️😂🤦‍♀️😂

My cousin grew up like this and now she’s so rude to people even her own family doesn’t really talk to her

This shit is just sad. Parents ruining their child’s mental health and childhood by forcing them to do what they wish they did. These parents need help and they need their kids taken away from them.

There is no way I would tolerate that behavior and wouldn't fair share it.

Your drivin me Nutz 😭😭 that was funny

Being an only child did not make her that way … the mother did.
