What happens when spoiled kids grow up?

Answer 1

they dont know what they need to do when they get to the real world.

Answer 2

What's your definition of spoiled.

It think they can either, a) turn out to feel entitled to everything

OR

b) simply have a high expectations in life. I grew up in an upper middle class town. A lot of my friends were spoiled rotten. My friend got a BMW when she graduated college. Yet, she still has a full-time job and she owns her own condo.

So, I really think it depends on what your expectations are. If you expect them to got to college and then starting supporting themselves, then they might be fine.

I don't see ANYTHING wrong with spoiling kids. Everything you teach your kids to be is done through expectations, not through material possessions.

What about kids who aren't spoiled, but still end up freeloading or getting in trouble with the law.

Good parenting is done through discipline and a clear cut ideas of what is expected from a child in terms of school, behavior, social skills, college goals, etc.

I would also like to add that you CAN NOT compare the behavior of Lindsay Lohan or Britney Spears to the spoiled kid next door.

Those kids actually did earn that money and are in an industry that we can't possible understand, with the media, etc.

Those kids were not spoiled by their parents, but were actually exploited by the industry that made them that money.

Much different then you average spoiled high school kid with a BMW and some custom made uggs.

Answer 3

Ha- I know the answer to this one!

I know these people who have 2 wild animals they call "their children". These kids have never been told NO, they can eat whatever they want, sleep when they want etc. They have never been taught how to treat people or animals.

So lets just say these kids think I am C-R-A-Z-Y! I expect them to behave! I expect them to listen! OMG! They look at their mom like "help us mom, this lady is nuts, make her let us be mean to her animals, make her let us pick our noses and wipe boogers on each other" etc etc etc

SO- these kids (who the parents try to get away from at any chance they can, which is rare because noone wants their kids at their houses), they have started school! The mom thinks "whew, now they'll straighten out".

Can you believe this? The school can't punish them, and they can't fix what's been broken since birth!

The oldest has already been labeled with ADD, ADHD and a bunch of other disorders and is now in the LD classes with the developmentally disabled. The youngest just started Kindergarten and the school might be expelling him for "violent behavior including gun play" and acting out of control.

These poor kids have NO clue how to act in public. PLUS- their brains are running on Butterfinger Candy Bars and Bacon and Soda.

They will be in jail by 16, I guarantee it.

Answer 4

They do learn to manipulate mom and dad and never have to be responsible for bills or what they do that is wrong. I agree with the hissy fits because I have seen both of these people have them when they are told they need to find work, or pay back the many thousands they have "borrowed". Both parents back off and refuse to cut the apron strings. In some ways, I feel it is a form of child abuse if these kids (middle-aged now) know nothing about fending for themselves. They are "entitled" to what their parents worked hard to achieve and know they will always be supported in every way. So disgusting to me! My kids learned that nothing in life is free, and that it takes hard work to succeed.

Answer 5

They suffer massively in life. The real world will not take care of them. That is why I am taught how to become responsible for my things. The children can't adjust to the adult life of responsibility. People go from privilaged to living on the streets.

Answer 6

It is know good to spoil your child, in the end you both suffer
The parent suffers because the child does his or her own thing.the child lands up on the street getting into all sorts of
trouble.Such as drugs, thieving, in trouble with the law.

Answer 7

They become my brother! =) Still spoiled, living with mommy at 26 yrs old, STILL getting whatever he wants, STILL having hissy fits if he doesn't get it. I have no idea what is gonna happen to him when my mom passes away... I really wish he'd get his **** together.. ffs, I am 24 yrs old, married with one kid and one on the way.
Spoiled kids also grow up to have NO sense of responsibility... it's sad really.

Answer 8

They keep going back to their parents for money and bail and somewhere to live. My ex husband has three brothers, none of them have finished high-school because they didn't "have to." All were booted out of the military (including my ex) all of them have been married at least 2x (including my ex) and have kids with at least 2 women (one of my b.i.l. provided sperm for a lesbian couple and then got hit for child support) One of them married a really fat and ugly lady who happens to have a brilliant mind for real estate, so he stays home all day and barbeques, living off her pay-check. One happens to be a good mechanic, though he can't go to mechanic school, and manages to support all six of his kids with the help of his parents..

My ex, at the age of 41, after his 2nd marriage fell apart over his incorrigible habits, and a house foreclosure, has moved back in with his mom and dad and has no intentions of ever leaving. The basement is his domain.

But the parents ALWAYS ALWAYS bail them out. Now they cannot enjoy their retirement years because they must pay off debts that they have co-signed on and they have adult children coming and going out of their house, living for free. I almost feel sorry for them

Answer 9

They realise the error of their ways and become great people or they stay spoiled.

Answer 10

They become spoiled adults.

Answer 11

they find out that they have to take care of there selves because mommy and daddy aren'tthere to do everything for them and totally freak out. They will usually go down hill emotionally and financially
