Starbucks Observation Essay
Individual #2
Around lunchtime in Starbucks today I observed a little boy around the age of ten in the check out line with his mom. I could definitely tell he did not want to be there. The boy came across as very unappreciative towards his mother as he demanded her to get him a smoothie. He did not just want a smoothie; he wanted the most expensive thing on the menu. Money clearly was not a worry to him; it looked like he got everything he asked for. He looked like a very privileged child since he was wearing brand new Nike shoes and a button up Polo shirt.
It caught me off guard by the way his mother would obey and do every little thing the boy wanted/said. The little boy acted like he expected his mom to do and get him everything he wanted.
