Should I let my wife spoil my baby?

Published by silentessence under marriage Edit This

This is a confusing issue for many men. I have to admit that I struggle with this same issue. I know for a lot of men we feel that our child will become spoiled and then when they are of age they will be unruly. On the contrary I’ve learned that’s not true.

I spoke with my Father about my childhood and how I was raised. He informed me that as a baby I was babied, as I child I was taken care of and as a man I’m treated like a man. So what I gathered is that there is a time for everything. There is a time to cuddle and love, there is a time to correct and chasten, there is a time to rule and regulate.

So rest assure my friend that your baby won’t be a baby always and there will be a time when your wife will beg you to lay down the law. We have our seperate roles and we have to be sure that we operate in them at the right time.

Take your time and know that even if your child is spoiled as a baby, there is plenty of time to reverse that behavior and raise a well-mannered child. A woman has to give that type of love because as a man often times we don’t posess it. So respect her position and let her give the love that was placed inside of her by God. Then when it’s your turn she will welcome your “tough love” and it will be much needed!
