[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All the "give more love, more togetherness, more praise" without consequences posters exemplify the type of parenting that has led to spoiled, dependent college kids and millenials. They think they are the center of the universe and have no consequences for their actions.[/quote] My kid is neither spoiled nor dependent, and I parent this way. Regardless, though, if you see Christmas gifts as an opportunity to show disapproval of your child you will have both an unhappy Christmas and a child with worse behavior than before. Use carrots and sticks if you must in your every day life, but can't you keep one day just for joy? No strings attached, because giving gifts to small children is its own reward?[/quote]
