Answer 1

Answer 2

Put your foot down, your the parent!

Answer 3

You are blaming your child for learning what her father taught her.  You have to try to make her father see that what he is doing is turning her into a spoiled brat.  Sounds like the family needs counseling since the two parents don't know how to parent together.

Answer 4

I have the same problem with my little sister. My parents don't ever listen to my advice...

But I would talk to your husband about this. Tell him that she is starting to get all little too spoiled and that he needs to tell her no sometime. If she throws a fit when she doesn't get what she wants, send her to her room. She'll eventually understand that she can't get everything.

Bravo on stopping this now. My parents never stopped my little sister and now every time we go out to the mall, she goes on a huge shopping spree and spends everyone's money.

Answer 5

She's so used to getting what she wants, when she wants it...that when you DO say no she goes through withdrawls! Unless you and your husband are pretty wealthy there will come a point when he'll have to say no. Times are tough, the economy is in bad shape and is getting worse everyday. Your going to put your family in debt if you don't learn to tell her no. Yeah, hearing her cry and scream probably hurts and don't let that make you feel like bad parents. As long as she has a clean, safe roof over her head, she's got clean clothing on, and food in her belly she is well taken care of. Good luck! :)

Answer 6

your husband must realize that he is HURTING the kid..

I work in a store and am DISGUSTED with the parents who give into their kids like this.. its wrong

it is setting them up for disaster

kids MUST learn how to deal with being disappointed. when they get older they will need to have these skills that your husband is not allowing your daughter to have...

your daughter right now is in control of HIM...

he needs to read this answer, and toughen up in order to be a good parent.
