Doting parents go to grocery store solely because their 1-year-old demands peaches, face accusations of spoiling her: 'Stop letting the child run the household'

I'm beginning to think that talking about any combination of peaches and family life is a guaranteed way of encouraging a certain portion of the internet to lose its marbles. Seasoned internet addicts may remember the Mom Life Comics debacle a while ago when Twitter relentlessly memed a comic in which a mom complained about her husband eating the last peach in the house.

Now, we have another controversy surrounding the delicious summer fruit, and it is possibly even more ridiculous. Yet another mom revealed that her toddler had asking to eat a peach, so her husband went to the store especially to fulfill that request. She joked about whether her one-year-old would actually want the fruit once it had been bought, but a certain proportion of weirdos took this as her admitting that she was spoiling her child. It seems like one of the hardest things about parenting is that no matter what you do, there will be somebody else judging you for it.
