Mum's response to daughter's lavish birthday gift demands: 'A no from me'

By Georgia Weir|

You only ever get one sweet 16th, but society has perhaps overinflated the milestone to crazy proportions. One mum has shared her own daughter's ostentatious birthday gift demands for her own 16th birthday on TikTok.

TikToker and parent Amanda Melendez's 15-year-old daughter handed her a list of potential birthday gift ideas when initial plans to go on a holiday went awry.

Melendez explains that passports could not be organised in time for a holiday, "we're not having a sweet 16th because she did not want one, instead she wanted to be on vacation."

Instead, the 15-year-old brainstormed other gift ideas that left the mum bewildered. Firstly, the teenager requests a brand new iPhone 13 as she is currently running an iPhone 11.

However, the gift ideas only get more flamboyant from here, as the teen then requests a designer bag.

"A big girl purse, but not just any purse, a Coach, Louis Vuitton or Telfar," the mum vents. Meledendez then shows her own bag which is off Amazon and was purchased for just $20.

The teen also requests a puppy, $1000 cash, and Bred 4's to which Melendez states, "yeah that's gonna be a no from me."

Also on the list was a request for pink roses that spell out her name, AirPods or Beats, bras and underwear from Fenty.

"The girl has seven letters in her name, that's a good $600," the mum laughs.

As for the AirPods the mum explains she had just purchased the teen her second pair four months prior which she has already lost.

The video has already garnered four millions views and commenters had a lot to say about the teen's list of demands.

"My mum would have looked at me and laughed," one user commented.

"She has expensive taste!" another added.

However, some commenters said because the teen opted out of a party or a trip, that the gift ideas were somewhat reasonable.

"I don't think this is that bad, she's not having a sweet 16 or the trip, and it's cheaper to buy all that stuff at outlets," one viewer wrote.
