Some parents buy their children whatever they ask for, and allow their children to do whatever they want. Is this a good way to raise children? What consequences could this style of parenting have for children as they get older?

It is true that there are some parents who are permissive to children, and often excessively indulge them. In my view,

this

is not a good way to educate children, and they have pernicious long-term consequences as they are adults. If parents want to bring up respectful and well-behaved children, a certain amount of discipline to children is definitely required. Parents should put clear expectations and boundaries on their children. It is of paramount importance that they have to say ‘no’ when their children try to have misbehaviours and push against these boundaries that are set up. In my opinion,

this

is a good parenting style to rear a good child. The aim of these expectations and boundaries is to help children to learn the way of how to control their desires and develop their self-control.

By contrast

, parents who have a tendency to do the opposite do more harm than good to their children, and It would appear that they fail their children rather than being generous to them.
