How to Spoil Your Child

Start from Their Birth to Adulthood Spoiling Them

Timothy Scheiman
This is a sarcastic look at how not to raise a child. If you want your child to be a spoiled brat than follow these tips and ideas I describe in this article. I am amazed today how parents take a backseat to properly raising their children. It seems some parents are too busy to make sure their children grow up properly and become a great addition to the community instead of a detriment.

Give your child everything

We want our children to have all the advantages and things we may never had. However, we are unknowingly creating a nightmare. What we end up doing is creating spoiled rotten children who have no respect for authority. Children throwing loud temper tantrums if they don't get their way. Parents will give in to shut them up.

Never discipline your child

I have watched children challenge their parents like they are the parent instead of the child. What is this time out crap? What ever happened to parents being allowed to discipline their children with a good old fashioned spanking? If one thing I grew up well adjusted and my parents would spank me but they never abused me there is a difference. If the child services think they can do a better job raising kids they should give it a try sometime. They make all the rules but never seem to understand children need to be corrected from time to time.

Let your children drop out of school

In this day and age more kids are dropping out of school. Children are not as motivated today to see the possibilities they can become. Our schools today are somewhat to blame cause kids are just plain bored. However, once they drop out do they have plans for their future? Employers still look for people getting a good education if they expect to get the good jobs. Your not helping your child by letting them do nothing or set up some kind of goals for their future. We all have dreams. Dreams cannot be fulfilled if they do not attempt to set goals to fulfill those dreams.

Let them live at home till they are 30

Why should your child or adult child do anything when he doesn't have to? Its called enabling when when we never push our kids into doing anything like get a job, go to school, or make their own way. Your not doing them any good by letting them do absolutely nothing. Some people are still treating their kids like they are young children when they should be out making their own way. What will your son or daughter do if suddenly you died? They can't stay at home forever they need to get out and get going.

Never make them get a job

When they are of age they should be out working or going to school to get a good job. We here of parents letting their grown child stay at home and do nothing. They never will get motivated when you give them everything. Why should they ever do anything when its given to them?

This could be you and your child if you follow these tips. When you expect nothing from somebody thats exactly what you will get.

    Child buttock-battering vs. DISCIPLINE:

    Child buttock-battering for the purpose of gaining compliance is nothing more than an inherited bad habit.

    Its a good idea for people to take a look at what they are doing, and learn how to DISCIPLINE instead of hit.

    I think the reason why television shows like "Supernanny" and "Dr. Phil" are so popular is because that is precisely what many (not all) people are trying to do.

    There are several reasons why child bottom-slapping isn't a good idea. Here are some good, quick reads recommended by professionals:

    Most compelling of all reasons to abandon this worst of all bad habits is the fact that buttock-battering can be unintentional sexual abuse for some children. There is an abundance of educational resources, testimony, documentation, etc available on the subject that can easily be found by doing a little research with the recommended reads-visit www.nospank.net.

    Just a handful of those helping to raise awareness of why child bottom-slapping isn't a good idea:

    American Academy of Pediatrics,
    American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry,
    Center For Effective Discipline,
    PsycHealth Ltd Behavioral Health Professionals,
    Churches' Network For Non-Violence,
    Nobel Peace Prize recipient Archbishop Desmond Tutu,
    Parenting In Jesus' Footsteps,
    Global Initiative To End All Corporal Punishment of Children,
    United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

    In 26 countries, child corporal punishment is prohibited by law (with more in process). In fact, the US was the only U
