Hi Mylotters,
Yesterday while waiting for two mylotters (we had a dinner date) i enter a bookshop and try to find a book i can buy unfortunately they don't have R.L Stine as i am browsing some books i heard a woman voice debating with a child age 8 or 9 years old the girl wants a teddy bear but her mom refuse to buy it but still the child insisted that she really want the teddy bear her mom grab the teddy bear and said OK i am going to buy this stupid teddy bear you want but we will make a deal i will not give you a pocket money for a week and you cannot eat your meal at school because i will not give you a money and the child agreed her mom sighs and bought the teddy bear.
I was thinking if the mom really don't want to buy that teddy bear then be it why she need to threat the child at the age she just knows what she wants,, she will not think what will be the consequences of her choice. I remember when i was a kid mom did not threat me that way as a child if you will ask me which one i like play time or meal time well i can skip my meal so i can play.
As i can see they can afford to buy that teddy bear
Maybe i cannot fully understand the situation because i am not a mother yet.

Well, some mothers are like that and i was one of them.
I would let my daughter have the thing she wants but will try to warn her that this is the last time. This is just an outburst of a mother that is made to buy against her will. However, the warning will never happen, because a mother cannot bear for her child to be deprived of a thing that is really for her.

hello simplyd,
I can fully understand what she did but what i don't like is giving her a child a warning like that then at the end she will give what the child wants
maybe i am not on her position that's why i really don't understand why she said that
thanks for the response

Hi,
well,I won't threat my girl like that...
It can be changed to another way...like "ok,I will buy you the bear,,but you have to do something.."like housework,,help her mom to do shopping,,,clean the floor,or water the flower...
just to make her know that you have to do something when you gain something..
happy mylotting...

Hi bhaby..
I am agree with you. The mother should not raise an agreement before giving the kid a doll. Later, its impact may be dangerous to her and the girl may be cruel to her mom.
I was raised in a poor family, hence some books were enough from my parents and had not ever touched a doll or something like this.
Take care.

hi shiby,
The mom can just simply say NO and explain her side in a good way rather than doing this to her child
So you want a doll?
have a nice day
have a nice day

Maybe the mother got irritated of the tantrums being displayed by her kid. Nothing's wrong with that but if she really wanted to talk her son out of buying the toy, then there are other ways to do it. I'm not a mother but maybe, like you, I'll soon understand how to deal with kids. The thing is, I do have a lot of nephews and nieces and it's not really the same. I spoil them most of the time.

It's not a good mum should do. MUm may have some financial reason about above conversaion, but they way she tell her kid is very bad!! He should tell daughter slowly "of course mum will buy you the teddy, but after let's see around first, there're a lot of teddy else outside...bla...bla....bla...blaa.....". If she really cant afford to a teddy, she better lie than ask daughter to not eat during school. She may just hit the daughter, but I believe that those word hurt so much and may bring some impact for her daughter. Mum should be careful about educate child with better way.

hello red,
You are right what that woman told her child is not a good one
She can refuse not to buy that teddy instead of making deal with her child
