Parents love their children and always want them to be happy. However, sometimes the good intentions of parents backfire and result in pampering children. Ineffective parenting strategies lead to pampered child syndrome (PCS). The parents who pamper their children do not realize that they have been pampering until they experience negative consequences. It becomes challenging when children easily adopt a pampered lifestyle. Pampered children exhibit adjustment problems. Such children become over-demanding and feel entitled. This generates negative feelings toward such children. Ultimately, nobody likes them. Therefore, parents need to understand their role and responsibilities in lives of their children and adopt adequate measures while parenting. We have attempted to define PCS and developed a conceptual model linking parenting styles to PCS. We have outlined the negative consequences of the pampered lifestyle for the children along with the reasons for pampering children. Lastly, strategies for dealing with pampered children are discussed.
