Enviously watching a young boy writhe on the floor of the dairy aisle, everyone at Eastside Marketplace was reportedly jealous of a kid having a total meltdown on the ground.

“God, that must be so freeing,” said onlooker Donna March of the young boy freaking out on the ground because his mom wouldn’t buy him Oreo yogurt. “I can’t tell you how much I want to drop everything and weep loudly on the floor.”

Sources report that as the kid kicked and screamed on the floor, the boy’s mom wished that instead of comforting the boy, she could just join him.

“That kid does not know how lucky he is that he’s at an age where throwing a tantrum is still acceptable,” continued March, thinking about how even something like the harsh lighting in the grocery store makes her want to get on the ground and scream. “He doesn’t even have anything stressful going on in his life yet. If I could, I’d throw a stomping fit every day at work.”

At press time, the boy’s mom just gave him what he wanted to calm him down.
