24 Students Just Shared The Wildest Meltdowns They've Ever Seen Rich Kids Have At Private Schools, And Oh My Word
1."Two of the kids at my school got into a fight over a parking place, and one somehow drove his super lifted truck OVER THE HOOD of the other kid's sports car. Fortunately, both of their parents bought them new vehicles so nobody learned any lessons."

2."My best friend at the time happened to be on vacation with her family in the Bahamas the same week I was, but she was there for her 16th birthday and brought a few other friends with her. Right before her birthday dinner, her mom gave her a Tiffany's box with a silver keychain, and she had a full-blown tantrum — crying, screaming, and cursing out her parents — because the keychain did not have car keys on it. The kicker? The friends and I were standing there as witnesses as her parents just took the abuse, took us all out to an embarrassingly overpriced dinner in a limo, then proceeded to give her a car wrapped in a bow once they got home."

3."I went to a very privileged international school. The kid of a diplomat (who was also independently extremely wealthy) totally crashed out because their parents told them they would have to take the bus home from school instead of their Bentley, because apparently, he got caught cheating on exams. The idea of riding home with us 'peasants' (even though many were just as privileged as him, if not more) had him so screwed up that he threw a trashcan out of the window and screamed, 'I'm going to kill everyone in this school!!!' at the top of his lungs. It was an international school in a country without guns, so it didn't carry quite the same weight as saying that in the USA. Still, I was mildly surprised when literally nothing happened to him for it, and the school admin took a firm stance of 'nothing happened.'"

4."One kid had a meltdown because his grandma was hospitalized and he couldn't spend his holidays in his other house in Réunion Island. He went there every holiday."

5."I had a friend in college from a very wealthy county in Southern California. She straight-up grew up on the beach. While in the laundromat, she complained to another friend and me about a surprise care package her mom mailed her. One of the items was a custom pair of TOMS shoes. They were adorable. It was extremely thoughtful of her mom to send them in the first place. She even chose the pattern and colors. My friend was furious and claimed that they were ugly. She said she wrote a scathing note on the package and returned it to her mom. The other friend and I were in shock and didn't even respond. We couldn't believe she did this and told us about it, as if what she did was good."

6."I played competitive cricket on Saturdays with about six guys from school (a fairly middle-of-the-road private school). The other seven came from a neighboring private school, and these fellas were completely loaded. The coach's son, Josh, was used to getting whatever he wanted. His dad bought him a brand new gaming PC, though this was in 2005, so it was not what we're used to seeing today. However, his dad told him he needed to save for the monitor. Of course, Josh thought his dad would cave and buy him one. We're at cricket training, and Josh and his dad have a very heated argument about getting a monitor on the way home. Josh absolutely loses his shit, screaming at his dad. He then picks up a cricket ball and whips it straight at his dad's head."
"Josh is 17 and has a hell of an arm. And for anyone who hasn't held a cricket ball, they're a lot heavier and harder than a baseball. Josh's dad spent four days in the hospital, and Josh never got to use his brand-new high-end gaming PC."

7."A senior once got wasted and somehow ended up driving his car through a wall into the dining hall. His parents stormed into the school the next day with a lawyer and tried spinning the story that the school's parking lot had 'too many turns on the roads,' which is how his car ended up in the lunch line. Somehow, this worked, and the entire parking lot was rebuilt. The family 'donated' a new dining hall that now has their name on it."

8.This kid got caught cheating and went to lawyer daddy to plead their case that they were just being efficient and 'using their resources.' It halfway worked. They weren't kicked out, but did have to take a zero. Incidentally, the school received a nice donation at auction from the family."
—Briaboo2008
9."This dude got gifted a new sports car from his dad. The dealership didn't have the color he wanted, so he had to wait two weeks. He threw a temper tantrum, screaming, cursing, and throwing things. I'm dead serious."
—Medical_Tutor_7749
10."A girl's dad came to pick her up from school in their new helicopter. She threw a tantrum and refused to get in it because she had asked for a white one, and he had bought a black one. He ended up flying home alone and sending a driver to pick her up instead."
—WinterSoldierFetish
11."A guy genuinely believed the WiFi password was a basic human right. He screamed, 'I'll sue the school!' when they changed it."
—aeonstudio_official
12."A girl in my class called her mom screaming because the maid packed her 'everyday' diamond earrings instead of her 'school' ones. She threw her entire Louis Vuitton bag at a wall and started hyperventilating. The school nurse had to calm her down like she'd had a panic attack."
—ukraian-valkyrie
13."This rich kid threw a fit during a fire drill because it interrupted his Fortnite game. He actually shouted the classic, 'DO YOU KNOW WHO MY FATHER IS?' while refusing to leave the building. Administration had to physically escort him out. Outside, in front of the whole school, he kept whining that standing in direct sunlight would 'damage his skin investment.' He literally said that. Apparently, he was on a $1,000 skincare routine. Then a bird pooped on his blazer. Dead center. Custom-made. Everyone lost it. Even the teachers were laughing behind their clipboards."
—lucyyygrif0812
14."A rich kid I grew up with backed his Porsche onto a Honda Civic, and just walked away from it. He was just being a POS. Not even kidding, a week later, he had a new Porsche. His dad has a garage full of them."
—PegCity-Handshake
15."When the girls' nanny came to pick her up, but she didn't have a game the girl liked on her phone, she started SCREAMING in the middle of the changing room, and the nanny was basically begging her to stop."
—Critical-Milk8581
16."One guy got expelled from boarding school for stealing money. He stole someone's card to spend like £400 on some new shoes and whatnot. So his dad came and picked him up, landing a helicopter in the sports field to take him away. That flight would've cost so much more than what the kid stole."
—goldlord44
17."My classmate's parents bought her a brand-new car and gave it to her in the parking lot of the school after school on her 16th birthday, and she had a meltdown because it wasn't the color she wanted."
—ranchojasper
18."When I was in high school, someone arranged for THOUSANDS of rose petals to be laid out on the school lawn spelling this girl's name to ask her out to prom. This was while a plane flew overhead, towing one of those banners asking the question. He got rejected and freaked the fuck out. Their parents were beefing with one another. People were telling the girl to just go with him since his family spent so much money. He was clowned on relentlessly. It was pretty hilarious."
—madhero3333
19."This girl's dad bought her an ugly yellow Hummer, but the parking spaces at our school were too small for her to park. Her dad went to the school with a donation and demanded that they combine two spaces into one and give her a designated spot. The school refused, so she had to park in this strip mall, climb a fence, and cross the fields to get to school and would arrive PISSED every day."
—Due-Huckleberry7560
20."A guy smashed a $10,000 guitar over a post at school when he couldn't learn a song. Another guy rented a private jet to go to our end-of-year event and showed up with his bodyguard, who threw a tantrum for him because the restaurant didn't have a 45-year-old whisky he wanted. Another guy paid for a steel door to be put in his room with iris scanners so his parents couldn't get in after a fight with them when they were away. I have many more stories. This was in Singapore."
—Logical_Business9541
21."We were on a school trip for 10 days. They rented three Airbnb apartments in one building – a girls' room, a boys' room, and one for the teachers. This kid had a full meltdown when he found out one of the apartments was not for him and his girlfriend. They also fought loudly and publicly through most of the trip."
—passportwhore
22."A spoiled brat lost her shit because she lost as student government president (she was insufferable). She's now a congresswoman in my country."
—MisanthropeInLove
23."A girl in my class once cried because her parents bought her the wrong color Tesla for her birthday. She literally said, 'How am I supposed to show my face in the carpool lane in a white Model X?!' The best part? She refused to go to school until they exchanged it — and they actually did. She returned a week later in a matte black one and acted like it was a personality trait."
—NaughtyMira_
24.And: "I knew a girl who, by age 16, had totaled two brand-new cars. When her parents refused to buy her a new one and told her to get a job if she wanted a car, she threw a massive fit and complained, because 'how dare they make her walk to school?' I remember just staring at her and laughing as she complained. It made her so mad, but I thought it was hilarious."

Richardson exits 200m at US trials, Coleman through
Sha'Carri Richardson failed to reach the final of the 200m at the US Track and Field Championships in Oregon on Sunday, ending a turbulent week that saw her arrested for domestic violence. Richardson, the reigning 100m champion, finished fourth in her heat in a time of 22.56secs, leaving her just outside the qualifying spots for Sunday's final at Hayward Field in Eugene. The 25-year-old Texan star, who has already qualified for September's Tokyo World Championships as the reigning 100m world champion, did not comment after her race other than to wish reporters a "blessed day." Richardson was arrested and detained last Sunday after allegedly assaulting boyfriend Christian Coleman as the couple passed through Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. Melissa Jefferson-Wooden, who won Friday's 100m, was the quickest qualifier for the 200m final, beating Olympic champion Gabby Thomas into second place. Jefferson-Wooden clocked 22.06secs in her heat, with Thomas just behind in 22.19secs. Richardson's partner Coleman, meanwhile, qualified for Sunday's men's 200m final, finishing second in his heat in 20.20secs, just behind world champion Noah Lyles in 19.97secs. Lyles, who is already qualified for Tokyo as the reigning 100m and 200m world champion, made a smooth start and accelerated into a lead off the bend before holding off Coleman and Kyree King. Lyles reached the final with the quickest time of the heats, with two-time Olympic 200m silver medallist Kenny Bednarek second fastest in 19.99secs. rcw/bb

Suspect in fatal shooting of four in Montana bar could be heading back to town, authorities warn
The manhunt for a military veteran accused of fatally shooting four people at a Montana bar stretched into the third day Sunday, as authorities warned locals to be vigilant as the violent gunman may return to town. Authorities believe the suspect, Army veteran Michael Paul Brown, killed four people Friday morning at The Owl Bar in Anaconda, about 25 miles northwest of Butte. Montana Attorney General Austin Knudsen said Sunday that Brown lived next door to the bar and was a regular. Authorities believe he used his own weapon in the shooting. Knudsen warned residents in the town of 9,000 to stay vigilant, as Brown may try to return to the area. He was described as being 'armed and extremely dangerous.' 'This is an unstable individual who walked in and murdered four people in cold blood for no reason whatsoever. So there absolutely is concern for the public,' Knudsen said. Several public events were canceled over the weekend, and parts of a national forest nearby were shuttered as authorities' manhunt for the gunman entered its third day. Barker Lake and the surrounding area inside the Beaverhead-Deerlodge National Forest were on lockdown, as investigators say they are considering all possibilities for Brown's whereabouts. Brown's niece, Clare Boyle, told the Associated Press that her uncle has struggled with mental illness for years – despite her and other relatives repeatedly seeking help on his behalf. 'This isn't just a drunk/high man going wild,' she said. 'It's a sick man who doesn't know who he is sometimes and frequently doesn't know where or when he is either.' Authorities also said Sunday that Brown, who served in the Army as an armor crewman from 2001 to 2005, was 'known' to local law enforcement before the shooting. It's believed he knew at least some of the victims, though authorities have not provided any information about the deceased. Law enforcement shared a photograph of Brown taken on surveillance footage just after the shootings. In the image, he appeared gaunt and wearing minimal clothing. Brown fled the area in a white pick-up truck, but ditched the vehicle sometime after, according to Lee Johnson, administrator of the Montana Division of Criminal Investigations. However, authorities now say he may have stole a different vehicle that held camping gear, shoes and clothing – meaning he may now be clothed. He was last seen Friday afternoon near Stump Town, authorities said. There's a $7,500 reward for any information that leads to Brown's capture. 'This is still Montana. Montanans know how to take care of themselves. But please, if you have any sightings, call 911,' Knudsen said. With reporting by the Associated Press.

Soulja Boy arrested on suspicion of weapons charge during a traffic stop
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Soulja Boy was arrested early Sunday following a traffic stop on suspicion of being a convicted felon in possession of a firearm. Soulja Boy, 35, whose real name is DeAndre Cortez Way, was a passenger during a traffic stop at 2:35 a.m., police said, and was arrested. Way was booked into jail in the Los Angeles Police Department's Wilshire Division a little after 6 a.m., according to the sheriff department's inmate database. Additional information on what prompted the stop and who else was in the vehicle was not immediately available, police said. A representative for Way did not immediately respond to The Associated Press' request for comment. The Chicago hip-hop artist is best known for his 2007 single 'Crank That (Soulja Boy),' which went to No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and brought him a Grammy nomination for best rap song. The rapper was recently ordered to pay more $4 million in damages in April after being found liable for sexually assaulting and physically and emotionally abusing a former assistant.
