putin on

Just "putin on" or" Put'n on"(as in putting on a show) is when a child cry's or perhaps a somewhat spoiled child cry's only to get his or her way from a parent, otherwise nothing really wrong and is mostly ignored by the parent, as oppose to a piercing cry that makes you drop everything you are doing.

She don't want nothing or ain't nothing wrong with her, she's just putin on whining.
