Why parents should not spoil children?
Isn't it good for a child to find extra care instead of being neglected?

The fact that most people aren't aware of is that spoiling a child is as dangerous as neglecting his needs and both actions have severe psychological effects on the development of his personality .

Parents spoil their children thinking they are doing them a favor by preventing them from suffering the way the parent suffered earlier in his life but in fact spoiling the child ruins his personality.

In this article i will tell you why parents should not spoil their children.

What happens when a parent spoils his children

When a child finds that all of his demands are being met he never bothers to develop the necessary life skills he might need later on. After all if there is someone who always brings me what i want then why would i bother to learn anything new?

As a result of this parenting style spoiled children become ill equipped to face life problems and they always revert back to the parent when feeling stuck.

Since a spoiled child can't depend on himself for long he will look for a romantic partner that can act like another mother or father who can take care of him the way his original parents used to take care of him.

Parents who spoil their children are usually over protective too and this makes the child believes that the word is an unsafe place thus he fears taking risks and he loses his self esteem.

Alfred alder the famous psychologist said that one of the main reasons for the development of inferiority complex is the act of spoiling children by their parents. In the Solid Self confidence program i said that one of the fastest ways to ruin a child's self confidence is to prevent him from learning new life skills as a result of spoiling him.

This is why parents should not spoil their children

When the parents spoil their child the child learns how to always search for someone who can take care of him instead of learning how to solve his problems on his own.

Spoiled children usually have a very low self esteem because of their inability to do anything on their own. When a spoiled child faces a very small obstacle he remains helpless unless somebody removes it from his way.

If you are a parent i strongly recommend that you never spoil your children.
