How many children do you have and are they spoiled?

Question

Just curious!

Answer 1

I have two kids 5months and 2 years. They are both spoiled but the one year old was first daugther, first granddaughter, and first neice. so you can see why shes spoiled. But i learned with her and preventing it from happening to the little one. But I love my kids

Answer 2

i have two sons. one is 7 and another is 4. they have a lot of toys but not spoiled. they know that quantity is better than quality. so they have a lot of cheap toys but no x box or no playstation.they want it but i put my foot down. they have a lot of toy cars to play with but no brand items (like fisher price or matel) cause brand items costs more. instead i buy them cheap chinese toys. so they are not hyped on brand items.

Answer 3

I have three children. Some people would say they were spoiled, but I don't think they are. I'm quite well off for finances and have a nice house with my fiance. I take my son on days out frequently - to the zoo, beach, park etc. and my children get toys on their birthdays and Christmas. I have brought my son up to appreciate what he gets though and he knows that bad behaviour means he won't get them. So he is not spoiled, more privileged. He is really well behaved and doesn't take things for granted and he only gets clothes and toys on special occasions or, in the case of clothes, when he needs them.

My children are spoiled in attention and in love, but not items.

Answer 4

2 daughters ages 4 and 2 and no they are not spoiled.  we cant afford for them to be spoiled but i would like to think that even if we were rich we wouldnt spoil them.

Answer 5

I have two, and my youngest one is a little spoiled.  I don't think it hurts to spoil them a little, as long as they're learning good manners too.

Answer 6

I have adopted a boy that lives in E. CONGO, through a M.S.FRONTIERES programm.

He escaped death in birth the last second.

He is now 3 and i try to spoil Bunia every chance i got...

Answer 7

I have 3 kids, ages 15, 2, and 1. The 15 year old is definitely more spoiled then the other two because she was an only child for so long that she did get everything she wants, and really still continues to get everything. Also having her at such a young age(16) I had tons of people who wanted to help me and gave her more then she needed and that kid was never put down, she was always the center of attention, and continues to be.

With the other 2 we have been careful not to give them the idea that they can have everything they want, yes they are spoiled, but not to the extent of their older sister.

Answer 8

I have 5 kids and no, they aren't spoiled.  They do get things.  For example, on their birthdays they will get a nice gift.  And on Christmas they will get a few things they have wanted.  Also, throughout the year, we will buy them somethings special that they have expressed a desire to have.  But for the most part, our children have to work to earn money to buy the things they want.  My thirteen year old son wants these really (I think) expensive soccer cleats. He is saving and working to buy them himself.  I am perfectly willing to buy him cleats for soccer, I just won't buy the ones he wants.  He is willing to wear the ones I would buy if he had no means of getting the other ones.  He always has.  This time he wants to buy a specific pair.

So, No my kids aren't spoiled.  We teach them to work, be thankful for and appreciate everything they have and NOT to expect things.  As a result, we have children who do not clamor for every "new" toy, electronic, fad that comes along.  When they ARE treated with one of these, they are VERY thankful.

Answer 9

i have no child so there is no question of been spolied

Answer 10

None, so "no".

Answer 11

3 kids and yes they are spoiled in love, but not in behavior.

Answer 12

We have one little boy, he's 5, I don't think he's particularly spoiled, but he does have a bouncy castle and a pool and stuff. He's an only child and we are older parents, he has to have some fun things to do since he doesn't have other kids to play with unless he's at school.

He doesn't behave bratty though, he takes it ok if we say no to things, and he's happiest playing with boxes and sticky tape - making things into things in his room.

I think having cable tv was a bad move really though, no kid needs 24hr kids shows, when I was a kid we were lucky to have one program a day that was for children.

Answer 13

4, and heck no!  we can't afford to spoil them, there are too many!!! HA

Answer 15

Just one so far (another on the way) and he's a little spoiled but not by my husband and I. Spoiling is Granny and Grandpa's job! :-) Both sets do more than their share of it.

Answer 16

2 and yes in some ways.

Answer 17

4 children, they are lovely, but have more than I had growing up.  They expect a lot, and have their moments of demanding things, and I bring them back into line, I remind them of how lucky they are and bring them back to reality.
