"Brat" is an English term dating back to the 16th century, originally meaning a child or young offspring, sometimes specifically of animals. By the 18th–19th centuries, it took on the figurative sense of a spoiled, badly behaved, or selfish child. The term is widely used in everyday speech, literature, and parenting contexts to criticize children's behavior. It is derogatory but mild, often expressing annoyance rather than deep insult, and can be used humorously or affectionately depending on tone.
