Sis, It's Bad Parenting Skills!

Hahahaha. Naalala ko naman yung sa nanay ko. The "makuha ka sa tingin" look. Pero kapag ganyan naaawa ako. Meron one time nasa department store kami. Hindi namin alam exactly what happened pero nagsisigaw yung nanay tapos grabe pagalit niya sa anak niyang babae mga less than 10 years old. Parang may nawala atang gamit pero yung scene parang may nakidnap na kapatid. Ganern.

I once saw an event like yours while commuting. Undeniably, we can argue the fact that whatever the parent was doing to discipline the child is beyond what parenting should do, it's inhumane to be honest. I really feel bad for kids who experience these misfortunate instances.

For me, one of the bad parenting I've ever encounter was when a parent does not have any reaction when their child did something wrong 😌

Like you, I detest parents who cannot control their children's bad behaviour, as well as those who demean them, especially in public, for some wrongdoing. Parents who nurture their children in the home will have more disciplined and respectful kids so they won't have to scream or shout out at them in or out of their house.

i see that happening so often here since i live near a squatter's area. it's kind of weird that the infant's aren't taught enough when that's when they're the easiest to correct

It's just sad that now adays, Gadgets dominating the minds of many children and the role of parents are being neglected na . Minsan dina nagagabayan ang mga anak ng maayos.

Unfortunately that sort of parenting exists in every country.

i super agree with you sis.. that scenario is so sad, i hope the mother had a change of heart now...

To achieve the right balance between that No we must give them when it's needed. And at the same time earn their confidence. It's a great challenge we have today as parents. So that, above all, as they grow up and go through adolescence, they feel that we are affordable and they can come to talk to us with trust. Good vibes, dear Wickedsoul!

I sometimes feel same way when i see my neighbor's children outside. Sometimes they stay outside naked and late for school. I pray they change someday and take care of their kids better.

Parenting isis indeed a very tough responsibility yet for parents they must know how to treat and teach them good for they will be future pparents too. Kung pangit pagpapalaki tiyak ganun din paglaki and can transfer to next generation kaya pati lipunan apektado

Note to self too, I'm guilty at some point over pampering my son every time. But I see to it that he knows all his limitations. This is an eye-opener to all the parents out there also me. To be aware of the welfare of the child first.

God Bless!

Yam-gong! I always say such when having an encounter with a mom who does that sort of thing to a child. Pero guilty rin ako at times kasi bigla na lang nasisigawan ko yung pamangkin ko :)

Kaya hanga ako sa mga kaibigan kong maayos ang pagpapalaki sa mga anak. Also parents who spend time with their kids outside the house. Para hindi movies and gadgets din.

Hmmm. I'm not going to pass judgment on to that kid and his mother. All I have are speculations. But seeing a scene like that is quite irritating indeed.

On your last note, I agree with you that we shouldn't bribe the kids with gadgets. But my in-laws gave the gadgets to my kids. So all I can do is set them up as a child's phone so I can monitor their usage and content filtering is applied. Plus some other parental control apps interrupt their use of the gadgets.

As for kids (younger than 6) with a tantrum, sometimes it's better to let them cry it out if no diversion would work.

Just the other day, I scolded my 3-year-old kid for hitting his brother. He wailed and won't let me touch him. The granny and aunt tried to 'rescue' him, I did not let them. Every time I talked to him he would cry some more. So I just stayed beside him silently. Later he calmed down on his own.

I like where you are related. Between the beach and the mountains. Where is that?

I pity the child to have been experience that. If the child made a mistake, I believe that the child will understand by reinforcing disciple but now through that kind of way. It is indeed humiliating for the child. If one day, I would have my own child, ill make sure ill talk to him or her everytime he makes mistakes and explain the consequences. I dont want my child to have trauma as it might affect him growing up.
