8:33 to 9:51 - Yes, I do. So what's your response?

That puberty is a "get out of jail free" card? Eh, I've seen scarier

Seriously though, bratty is bratty. Even with puberty, everyone is unique, with their own progression, and still has to take responsibility for their own shortcomings. (For one, everyone in the "mane 6" had different problems when they were young that fit their personalities, and for that matter, all of them save maybe for Applejack didn't change that much from then to the present.) Sweetie Belle stooped pretty low, for reasons she partly just clung to in the first place to make herself feel better - reasons the episode was just making up on the spot, at that.
