History Main / BrattyHalfpint

Unlike the MouthyKid, the BrattyHalfPint isn't the voice of reason of the party but rather a troublemaker who likes to get on people's nerves through sass or sabotaging their plans. At their best, they're [[AttentionWhore Attention Whores]]. At their worst, they're a serious pain in the ass, made even worse because they enjoy being that way.

* ''BittersweetCandyBowl'', Lucy's pet Yashy is a prime example of this trope.

* ''OffWhite'' has a BrattyHalfPint wolf pup that gives Jera a permanent scar and [[spoiler: [[SacrificialLamb dies with everyone he has known and loved.]]]]

* From ''VideoGame/UmJammerLammy'', as well as its soundtrack album ''Music/MakeItSweet'', we have the baby bunny in "BABY BABY!!", who is shrill and demanding and keeps saying "gimme" this and "gimme" that, everything from normal things a baby would want, like food or a potty, to a "car, one that goes vroom!"

* Shannon, Toni's niece, from ''ComicStrip/{{Luann}}''. Bad-tempered (drawn with a perpetual scowl on her face), disrespectful, greedy and completely self-centered. Toni has recently admitted to Luann that she enjoys pawning Shannon off on her simply to enjoy being away from the little brat.

If overdone and excessively obnoxious the Half Pint risks becoming TheScrappy to some of the audience. Often the party's attack magician if there isn't a BlackMagicianGirl. They may also [[BratsWithSlingshots use a slingshot]]. Attempts to insult people usually descend to BigStupidDoodooHead.

* Barry from ''{{Curtis}}'' could be the TropeCodifier. When he's bored, he provokes Curtis, then runs sobbing to his mother that mean ol' Curtis is trying to hit him for no good reason at all. Then, for his sins, he is given ice cream and the opportunity to gloat over all the extra chores Curtis gets. This happens with such frequency that when Curtis assesses that the family could, in fact, be qualified as "poor", one wonders if the source of their economic troubles isn't all this damn ice cream Diane's buying for Barry.

* {{Implied}} with the Detention Kids from ''WesternAnimation/TheBookOfLife'', given how they all were given detention. Goth-kid exemplifies this the most.

* Mowgli as portrayed in ''Disney/TheJungleBook'' qualifies, despite being the main character, bratty and insisting that he possesses the necessary jungle skills when he clearly does not. Of course, he does [[TookALevelInBadass Take A Level In Badass]] eventually.

* Dani in ''HocusPocus'' -- an extreme version, who offers up various comments about her Big Brother's non-existent sex life. (She's only eight.)

May be a youngest sibling or simply act like one. Talks a good game but [[TheLoad often falls into trouble]] and needs to be rescued when that isn't [[DistressedDamsel the job]] of TheChick. [[BerserkButton Hates]] being called a kid but lacks real maturity. Often a boy but Bratty Half Pint girls are not uncommon. Such a character seldom gets along with anyone, except TheHero. The "getting along" part almost always happens ''after'' TheHero [[DefeatMeansFriendship has given the kid the slap across the face or the fatherly/motherly spanking]] that the kid needed badly.
