This little girl tried so hard to get a popsicle but came up empty. She knew what she wanted, but things just didn’t go her way. Watch the short but sweet and hysterical clip to see what the child did to try to fulfill her popsicle craving.

We all have things we want in life. Even people who claim to be entirely content with what they have and state they possess no desire for anything else secretly still want this and that. It might be something minor, inexpensive and completely within their reach, but it’s still there.

That’s a part of human nature, of course. Yes, wanting something more and not being happy and fulfilled with what we already have is not a good trait or characteristic, but we all have it. While it’s not always apparent in adults, it’s much more readily visible in the actions and attitudes of children. They are constantly asking for more – for this, that and everything in between. Parents know and understand this completely.

In a clip posted on YouTube, a young woman enters the room and asks her mother very sweetly for something. When that request does not go as she expected, the little girl takes another route, one in which she obviously believes may yield different and better results than her first attempt at obtaining a popsicle.

“Can I have a popsicle?” the child asks her mother.

“It’s too close to bed, baby, no,” mom responds. “No popsicles tonight.”

Well, the child, like many children do when in that position, goes to her father.

“Can I get a popsicle?” the girl asks her father.

“What did your mommy say?” Dad responds.

“She said, ‘No,’” the child answered honestly.

“Ok, well, if mommy said no, what does that mean?” he asks his daughter.

“If mommy said no, daddy said no,” he added. “Mommy and daddy will always be on the same page. You hear me?” he tells his daughter.

She tried and failed but learned that her parents will never undercut one another when it comes to their children. They will always support one another.

Proverbs 22:6 “If a child is trained up in the right way, even when he is old, he will not be turned away from it.”
