i hate parents like that. see 'em all the time at work (Target). the kid wants something, parent tries to instill some discipline by saying no, but the kid whines enough and the parent eventually gives in. just shows the child that maybe mommy and daddy aren't always right and that they can be tested. i hope that, when i'm a parent, i'll be able to be forceful enough with my child(ren)--though not with violence--that they'll know when to stop asking for something.
