Today, there is a growing trend among parents towards trying to accommodate their children’s every demand and giving them more personal freedom. In the essay, I am going to demonstrate how this child-rearing practice is detrimental to children before arguing that its repercussions may reverberate in their adulthood.
Parents may wean their kids on an over- reliant lifestyle by fulling all of their wishes. Kids who are granted every request typically develop a habit of pestering and relying on their parents for everything. This dependence may deprive them of the motivation to strive in life, which may take a heavy toll on their school performance, for example. As these children become grown-ups, the inability to lead an independent lifestyle will cause them to struggle in many facets of life. For instance, people who are given generous allowances when they are small are unlikely to be able to budget and manage their personal finances. This is an example of adverse impacts that parents’ over-indulgence may have on small kids.
In addition to spoiling children, entitling them too much personal freedom may also result in dire consequences. People’s personality is shaped at an early age, and without parents’ close supervisions, children may be vulnerable to negative influences and adopt harmful habits. For example, many children in Vietnam use profanities from as early as primary school because their parents allow them to play video games at internet shops where cussing in the norm. this types of behaviors, which often incites disobedience and recklessness, may be the precursor to an adulthood of crime. In fact, it has been shown that many criminals began rebelling and committing illegal acts from young ages as a result of their parents negligence. This is a testament to how an unsupervised childhood may cause small kids to suffer serious consequences as they become adults.
In conclusion, granting children all of their wishes may do serious harm to their personal development, and thus this practice should be rejected to ensure a healthy lifestyle for their kids.
