Immediately berating someone for strategizing and solution to a problem is not “failing as a mother"—it's called being a parent and giving your child what they want. Of course, there are levels to this, especially if this is a repeated issue. However, this user did not have an issue with quickly whipping up an alternative meal so her child would simmer down and regulate themselves. The mother's reaction to this gentle solution says it all, though—this user's mother might have not been a gentle parent herself.
It feels terrible to see your baby cry without being able to fully communicate why they're upset. They don't have a high level of emotional maturity because they are a toddler, so screaming and forcing them to do something they so clearly don't want to do will only make the situation worse and possibly cause a rift between the child and parent. Like everything, parenting is a constant learning experience. Despite this, this situation did not warrant a stern talking-to from the user's mother in front of her children.
