So, if you're wondering how early in life "Karens" get started, your answer is, pretty dang early...like 3?

Exhibit A: This video featuring little Maria getting ready to blow out the candles on her third birthday cake. She is surrounded by family and friends. However, trouble is lurking in the form of the little girl on her right who appears to be sulking at the lack of attention coming her way.

In the moment of truth and Maria goes to blow, the sulking party guest steals her thunder and blows them out herself. The hair-pulling retaliation is both awful to watch and impossible not to love.
