I would like--- someone like me...

The mums regretting raising a spoiled brat who will probably grow up to be an entitled piece of work 🤷🏻‍♀️

Sometimes I spoil my kid, maybe if you earn a lot then what I do probably doesn’t class as ‘spoiling’ but for our budget it is, swimming arcade cinema, soft play, park…this is every weekend and it’s not as a reward. I’m aware I do it for myself partly as I hate staying inside but I do take things away for negative behaviour and as she’s 5, I can be more firmer with her than how I was when she was 2 or 3. At 3, not only do they have no concept of money but they’re not at that stage most of the time to see it as a reward, some might disagree but it’s more so just giving them things and if their behaviour is showing ungratefulness as well… we’ve had this problem and my partner says my daughter doesn’t appreciate things, it’s hard as they literally have no concept of money or the fact you go without for them. My 5 year old thought we pay only 100 quid for our rent 😂 x

My first thought would be that maybe they’re focusing more on material things they’ve given their child rather than on giving them the emotional/psychological support they may not have had as a child. They probably need more support themselves in terms of boundaries, limits, etc. But I’m assuming a lot based on little context.

@Chloe you don’t spoil your child , you treat them , huge difference 🤎

I think there’s a massive difference between treating a grateful , well behaved child and spoiling a child. Never parent out if guilt and it sounds like she’s spoilt her child to make her self feel better and is now mad at the repercussions

Sorry to be dark, but I think this mom resents being a mother and doesn't actually take great care of their kid.

The key is to give you’re children everything they need not everything they want, giving them what they want enables kids to harbour unfiltered disrespect with their parents aswell as grow up with a mindset that their entitled to get what they want because you’ve conditioned them to believe they can get anything they want, get you’re children use to random treats or rewards over throwing everything at them just because you didn’t receive that type of parenting

I say ... in giving the child everything and phasing it this way... They accidentally trained the child to neglect them.. And they lived a life and have a perception.. I would have been so thankful for this.. Ur child just has the perception u don't matter only they do.. from ur behavior.. U need to flip the relationship yesterday.. u didn't teach it for u.. it will be hard for them to give it to others.

U are important in ur home... ur child needs to see that.. but coming from abuse.. u can make a new relationship of neglect with ur child.. from the environment u made... on accident.

Ur so used to neglect u think it's no big deal.. always put the kids first.. U did a very opposite and equal reaction to how u were raised. U needed more middle. I hate my kids.. it's the husband/ no support.
