People who feel they failed as parents usually share a common regret:
"I did not show my kids enough love."
On the other hand, no one ever regrets giving their children too much affection.
"Affection could no more spoil a child than the sun could be put out by a bucket of gasoline." -- L. Ron Hubbard
Giving a child an unlimited supply of toys and presents makes it difficult for a child to return a real exchange.
But
giving a child an unlimited supply of love and affection is
something a child can happily return to you . . . in abundance.
This
advice applies to marriages as well. A lot of affection might
put your spouse into a happy state of shock, but he or she won't
be spoiled.
Go try it!
