Certain brats, being naughty, who won't think straight? (12)
I believe the answer is:
scatterbrain
'won't think straight?' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'certain brats being naughty' is the wordplay.
'being naughty' is an anagram indicator.
'certain'+'brats'='certainbrats'
'certainbrats' is an anagram of 'SCATTERBRAIN'.
'who' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for scatterbrain that I've seen before include "Person incapable of concentration" , "One who cannot concentrate" , "butterfly" , "I'll forget" , "Dippy type" .)
