When English children whine they are the whiniest children in the history of whiny children. I don’t wish them any harm but I do think their whininess as children comes back to them as adults when their own children start whining. They sound is so effete, it all sounds like spoiled crying as if their Earl Grey wasn’t steeped for 5 minutes exact. This is not to say that these children’s concerns aren’t legitimate; it’s not like they just cry about only liking chips and not their fish. I suppose however being British is enough to make anyone whiny.
To be fair English whining compared to American whining is more tempered; they don’t have the outrageous tantrums which make our young seem so spectacular. There is nothing quite so horrific as seeing a child screaming so hard their fat, little face is red.
Maybe I should travel the world to find out the true whine of each culture's children or maybe I should just listen to White Lion's "When the children Cry"
