@Sara516

I just wonder…after reading alllllllll these posts on GS…are there ANY parents who will admit that they do this? i..e, let their kids take other ppls’ toys or ruin other ppls belongings etc?
or are they just too ashamed to admit?

Kids are kids - some hosts don’t understand that and think of them as adults unfairly. A behaved kid is dull and demotivated. Kids should be able to kids things - including crying, breaking things, asking for attention, play, eat sugar. We were all kids once, and should allow them what we may have been deprived of. And no, this would not make a kid labelled by some closed-minded people as “spoilt brats”, or parents that can’t control kids… things some people come up with. Having expensive crystal on open display is not a child friendly place, nor going to a fancy restaurant. We just need to adjust and adapt

Edit: hubby wrote that - Maheen.

Now I get it.

and even if its a joke and menat to be taken lightly…obviously a lot of parents DO feel this way and take it too far to the fact that they think the world revolves around them and their child…or else we wouldn’t have these experiences everyone is speaking of.
