Did you mean 'precocious'?
It is a term for children, but it's not necessarily an insult. Although, I would use it more in an insulting manner. I'd be more likely to say 'precocious little brat!' But really it just means that they're old before their time. I think people tend to use it more about kids who are a bit too smart-mouthed for their own good. lol
