"I like to think of myself as a fairly mature adult but there&amp;#39;s one thing that turns me back into a whiny child more than anything else. Splinters.\nPinterestFacebookI&amp;#39;ve had broken bones, extensive dental surgery and quite a few other injuries and held a stiff upper lip for all. But it&amp;#39;s always a splinter that has me weeping like a baby. The other day, after feeling an odd pinch on my fingertip, I looked down to see a mean splinter glaring back at me. I yelped, retreated to the bathroom and squealed for my husband to assist. I cried&amp;#8212;seriously&amp;#8212;and more than a few times made my husband stop because the pain was &amp;quot;just too much.&amp;quot; And I&amp;#39;m almost never this dramatic but for whatever reason, splinters always have me in hysterics.\nI think we&amp;#39;ve all got those little things that make us revert back into weepy kids, especially after a long day. Let&amp;#39;s bust out the sympathy violins and share the trivial things that make us want to call the whambulance for assistance.\nWhat small things make you act like a baby? Stubbing your toe? Missing the bus? Finding out the shoe you&amp;#39;ve been lusting after is sold out? What things make your boyfriend act like a baby?
