Can children be spoilt?

Someone asked us a question about this a while ago and it’s a topic we have been looking forward to discussing on the podcast. We weren’t sure where it would go, but actually it turned into a very interesting chat! Amongst other things, we discussed: 

  • Whether being spoilt is actually a negative thing. 
  • If you can spoil a child with too much attention 
  • Why we can ‘be spoilt’ but children can’t! 
  • Whether treating is different to spoiling? 
  • How to deal with the situation when children get upset because they can’t have what they want . 
  • The instant world – has it had an effect on the way we parent? 
  • Judgement and parental approaches. 
  • Only children and being spoilt. 
  • Judgement and labelling in relation to the word ‘spoilt’ 
  • Explanation and appreciation and why they are both really important when communication with and role modelling for our children.
