Are Soft Parents Creating Monster Kids?




This is so true and it is what I'm looking at every day.

Apparently according to this "eminencia" or brainy person

  Dr Don Kindleton   the symptoms that we as parents should be on the look out for "just in case we are creating a monster" are the following: 

They experience:
  •  Self- Centeredness
  •  Anger
  • Extreme ambition
  • Lack of motivation
  • Eating disorders
  •  Impulsiveness
  • Spoiled  behavior


Does this ring a bell to anyone??????Have you ever witnessed this kind of attitude in children not to far from where you are right now?Children who are given power and backed up by misguided parents then become "despotas" or  tyrannical, brutal, dictators.  (Does that seem a bit O:T:T?)

We DO need to put cameras in the classroom for the teachers protection. Oh and tape recorders too PLEASE!!!!  

Burnt hair is nothing!!!!!(In Spain yesterday a teacher got her hair set on fire by a kid that probably started off complaining that his teacher was too strict "Que le tenia mania" o "Que le regañaba" and then he was backed up by the powers that be.   

The result being that he grew and grew and grew!)

Read this book it's really enlightening.


Too Much of a Good Thing: Raising Children of Character in an Indulgent Age,” 

Parents need to be the boss. " Love your kids to death but always be in charge" and please, please, please don't undermine the teacher even if you can't stand the sight of her/him.
