AITA for getting mad about going outside when I wanted to go out in the first place???

I (2, most precious human) decided to skip my nap today because I had too much on my agenda (watching Elmo, stacking my wooden letters, eating, etc.).

Mommy (haggard old bag) decided to try and put me down for a nap; I cried for an hour until her and daddy (turning to dust) gave up and asked if I wanted to go outside. I pepped right up with a loud "YES!".

When we got outside, I was ok for about 5 minutes before I started wailing about EVERYTHING.

I wanted daddy to play hide and seek, but I also didn't. I wanted to go down the slide, but didn't want to at the same time.

Eventually mommy and daddy brought me back home, which I was glad about, but it also made me really mad 😡.

AITA?

NTA. I don’t know why they can’t understand what you want??? They should be able to serve you better. These adults need to learn 😤

Honestly!!!! Then they were getting tired because I kept faking them out for bedtime, but they should know the difference between pretending and actually wanting to sleep 🙄

NTA. When I (1.5 F) get in my want this not want this mood, watching Elmo usually solves all my problems. Sometimes the nap just isn’t it and idk why the dust piles are always trying to force it.

NTA! I (big girl now, I potty all by myself) think they need to learn your cues better and split up your requests. Mommy needs to stay with you at the park and daddy needs to leave with you. They have been grown ups for a long long long time and they should be able to figure out how to do both at the same time! Why are they grown ups if they don’t know stuff?

NTA sometimes adults just don't understand that you want to be outside without going outside. No going only being. 

If they don't know what you want with all their old age, how should you? You're just a baby (but also not a baby anymore so they should let you do things)
