My definition of a child who is badly spoiled, screams whenever he/she does not get what she wants and demands things what he/she wants. No, I would consider a spoiled child bad, because it is the parents job to show them or talk to them about manners and to show and talk to them how she can not get whatever she wants. Communication is the key.

Both. A spoiled child is one that will not take correction or direction without a fight and when they fight, they get their way. It is that the parents are afraid either of the child, the child's reaction or that they aren't being kind to their child if they do not give in.

Just had a kid's party at my house. One child that everyone loved, was a well-behaved and obedient 1 1/2 year old. One child cried and screamed and was not ever disciplined or taken to one side and told how to behave. She almost ruined the party and gave us all stress. She has nice parents that do not have a clue what to do with her. The other younger child had a wonderful time, came when she was called or directed and the young mom is someone I admire. She works hard raising this little one and even at such a young age, the child is a delight. The other families were just as tired at the end of the day as the hard working and focused mom but one went home with a sweet baby and the others went home with wild kids and had to deal with them until bedtime. It is work either way. Parents should not ever let kids have their way. The children can ask nicely (teach them sign language at an early age and it helps them to not be frustrated) and get more than they asked for and praise to boot. When we grow up, our bosses will not tolerate bad behavior or lack of performance. Teach them when they are young and they will be a joy for others and they will have a joyful and less stressful life. We raised our kids with lots of love and proper discipline and they are now some of the nicest, most fun, young adults around. They are making good choices, doing very well in college and their bosses love them. They are responsible adults that have gotten praise all their lives and it continues. (People even stopped us in restaurants and praised them.) They have good self esteem and it was worth all the time spent.

SPOILED child is not a bad child. Its a child that has not been raised properly. AND the sad thing about this is a child is use to a certain set of rules and income .AND then they meet the real world. NOW that's very sad and cruel.AND if the person is bright they will learn to adjust. IF they dont learn to cope they have a nervous break downs and are never the same again.

You can spoil a child and then you can ruin a child. I have three and they are all spoiled and get pretty much what they ask for but at the same time they are polite, respectful, well liked by peers and teachers and very helpful around the house. However if you have one that is always given what they want and their own way without teaching them the proper behavoir and about rules and consequences then you have a ruined chld that is going to grow up thinking they are owed everything and only they matter.

A child is never a bad child. A child neglected by the parents, teachers , friends& society comes under the influence of those petty
things which allure him/her to get in the infuence of the source which creates a passion to follow that elemental hazardous life unknowing falls in and will not realise until again is corrected by the right person to counsel Him/ Her to overcome the drastic effects nurtured in the childhood not by harsh treatment but with ample care and much love. Then nochild will be called a bad child .He / She will definitely be a ray of hope of another child to be successful in his/her endeavors. Believe in the Almighty Providence . You will definitely be successfull in ur endevour.

A spoiled child is a child who gets whatever they want and KNOWS IT. They use it to their advantage usually by making the parent feel guilty. This is a process that needs to be stopped immediately. The child will grow up thinking they are entitled to everything and in the real world, we all know that's far from the truth!

A spoiled good child in my eyes are children who there parents spend lots of time with and gives then what they can.. Sometimes a bad spoiled is that they are treated very very good and the child doesn't know wrong from right cuz the parent is afraid of yelling at them or showing them right from wrong and that's the bad spoiled they disrespect everyone and don't know it because mommy or daddy let them do it so why shouldn't you...That's my opinion

It is both. It is important for a child to have things that we never had as children but it is also important for children to know that they can always get what they want.
A child also needs to learn how to listen to their parents and parents who are afraid to discipline their children are only setting their selves up for a bigger problem down the road.

I think it is a child who demands things be bought for it, and displays "bad" behavior when they are told "no". And it is not an isolated incident, it is the norm. They are not necessarily a bad child, it has just learned to control it's parents. A pretty smart child.

A child who will throw a screaming fit if they do not get every little thing they want. One who bosses the parents, not the other way around.
