How do i know if my husband is spoiling my child?

I think your spouse may not realise he is spoiling the child, he may think he is just giving him a good childhood.

talk to him nicely, explaining that you want your son to know not everything is going to be rosy in his life

discuss with your husband on how best to take care of your kid to Ensure he can accept rejections and no in his future adulthood

your spouse may have different attitudes toward pampering your son but both are of the same goal- wanting the best for him

It depends a lot on your child's behavior. A child's behavior is moulded a lot by his surroundings such as his parents teaching on him

If you compare your child behavior perhaps against a sample of 10-20 other child you are aware of and he seems very spoilt, perhaps it gives you the answer to your husband's action on the child

From what little you've written, it seems to be the case. I think there must be times when he says no to unreasonable demands, even if the child throws a tantrum he must not give in

Hi anon,

It sounds like he is. We can't accede to the whims and fancy of children all the time, or else the sense of entitlement that will grow within your son will reach a point where it becomes impossible to manage. Your son needs to understand the value of money too, as he is now living in a world where money is (to him) unlimited and can buy what he wants. Financial prudence must be implemented. We want to give them values, not material items.

You'll need to very careful when treading on this subject. There is no clear answer here, but it would be best to talk to your husband during a point where your child is sleeping or otherwise not around so that your husband can focus on the conversation at hand, namely, how to draw the line between parenting and spoiling. It's a joint responsibility between both parents.
