You Can’t Get It Easily, Boy !

This tricycle is Marcus’s play toy? No, he still don’t know how to ride it. He has one at home which is using legs to move on. I tried to let him sit on the new tricycle when we go Jusco last Sunday. He liked it and didn’t want to let go. He cried and yelled in public as he still want to ride on it. We have to go home, it was 10pm. I just carried him to see other things and let him forget about the tricycle. He stopped crying after few seconds.

Even though he wanted it badly, I won’t buy it so easily for him. I don’t want to end up that I need to buy something while shopping with kid.  If I want to buy a toy, I normally do it while my kid not with me. It will become easier for me as he learns that it is not the norm for me to buy toys for him during shopping.

As parents, if you have started to buy from the beginning, it will be harder to say “NO” later. May be I will let him to choose his favourite toy during his birthday or I reward him as a good boy when he grows up.

    See his face… so kesian… but I agree with you. If we let them think theyt can get anything, they will keep urging us next time again, and again, and again.

    So, like u, I buy him toys only when he’s not around. I think for me that’s the best way because you really really check the toy whether suitable or not, whether practical or not without him/her influenced your judgement. Marcus gonna grow up be the better man later on. Thanks to his lovely mom :)

    papajoneh, that’s why now Marcus always cry in front of his grandmother as she will give him everything he wants easily.
