You're the meanest parents in the world and I hate you!

'You're the meanest, most horrible parents in the whole world and I hate you!' is a catchphrase said by Horrid Henry in the books aimed towards Mum and Dad when he doesn't get his own way, which normally doesn't resort to working, instead just causing them to send Henry to his room. This really shows how much of a sociopath Henry is in the books.
In the TV series, it is toned down to 'You're the worst parents in the world!'. Henry does say this quote in the episode "Horrid Henry and the Football Fiend", but without 'I hate you!'.
