Being a first time mom i have lots to learn about. Thank God that i have younger brother and i experienced how to take care of babies. At first, i thought that i can handle them because it is so easy feeding, washing, bathing them. But as i experienced the whole sense of being a mother, well, now, i can say that i have judge it all wrong.
I have a two years old son right now. We lived in the parent’s house of my partner. He is the first Grandson and he has three grandmothers. One is single, the other one have a husband but with no child of their own and lastly is my mother in law. It is quite difficult because they have a more old fashioned style in up bringing a child. Compare to us which is more updated nowadays. What i can observe is that my child is now beginning to be a spoiled brat and always wants to get what he likes. For him to never throw tantrums, they give him what he wants. And for me that is a bad habit but i can’t do anything about it because always have the final word. What i do is that when i am alone with my son i always talk to him and make him understand that he will never always get what he wants.
Right now, i am in the stage of educating and communicating with my son so that even if the environment around him is that, i am consciously instilling to him the right values.
