Idiom Scenario 2:


Young Aaron has been behaving badly all day.   He would not eat his breakfast.  He threw his toys all over the room during playtime.  Aaron disobeyed his mother and spilled his sticky drink all over the good sofa.  At nap time, Aaron yelled and screamed at his mother and tried to hit her.  Poor Pamela is absolutely disgusted with her son's behavior.
Is Aaron's mother, Pamela, fed up with Aaron's behavior?
