Nope, but my sister was. I was always told I had to set the example because I was the oldest. Lol, so I guess that meant I grew up at the ripe old age of two when my brother was born. Two years after that, when my sister was born, I was a pro at being a little adult.

Yup and still am!
My stepdad is the best daddy I could have ever asked for. My dad passed away when I was really young. So I don't remember much of him. But my stepdaddy, he never for once made me think I'm not his daughter.
He made me fat! LOL. He bought Kit Kat and chocolate muffins for me every week.
Built me a dollhouse and bought the furniture.
Played Barbie Dolls with me, combing their hair and putting on their clothes.
He would always scold me, then feel bad about it.
He taught me how to fix stuff around the house.
He'd make so much of noise if I asked for anything, but he would buy it for me anyway.
Brought me for a holiday on my b'day!
Gave me the freedom to do what I wanted.
He cried at my graduation.
We cry every time we say goodbye.
I love my Daddy for spoiling me. Mom on the other hand, spoils me more! hahaha!

Yes I was, and still am, spoiled. I am the only neice to rich grandparents, the only (and last) daughter of my dad and mother. My aunt cant have kids and now neither can my mother. I get to go all over the country and Europe every summer, I usually get everything I want, and I get over $200 dollars for my birthday and Christmas. I don't act spoiled though. Most the time I'd rather buy something for someone else rather than for myself. I appreciate the spoiling I get immensely and never flaunt the things I get. I work hard for most the things I get, except if I feel lazy lol, and try not to ask for much from my parents or family. Though, my parents and I aren't close because they work so much, I do feel alone often..

Far from it, making me who I am today.
Spoiled kids become obnoxious, anti-social adults with entitlement complexes who raise unbearable brats with no sense of independence or responsibility because their parents have NO idea how to set boundaries and instill values and follow through with natural consequences.

No. I was the oldest of the generation so I was expected to know and do everything.

Extremely. My parents had one rule: go to school. Other than that we were accountable for almost nothing. We weren't bad though, just spoiled. We were respectful, polite and well mannered...we just got everything we asked for. And we were never really punished. In retrospect, I wish I'd had less freedom and had to work for more of what I got. I used to pretend I was grounded when I was kid.... who does that?

no I wasn't ... I struggled for everything I had... we rented and lived in run down accommodation for ages and my father always had low paying jobs we were regularly on the poverty line living on next to nothing growing up in the 80's ... after my father lost his job we went without meals at times when expenses were tight and I never could afford hair cuts or pretty clothes... I always bought cheap on special clothing from the supermarket or made it ...not designer or myer or department stores.. we never could afford mc donnalds or entertainment ... we got basic Christmas gifts and a few times went without xmas gifts at all... I rarely afforded sanitary napkins even ... we went without so much ... never went on holidays anywhere but to the grandparents farm... which was hell with my grandmothers drinking
there are no baby photos of me at all.. and I had mostly hand me down clothes from my older sister..
there were a few years in the late 70s -early 80's we had bigger spread of xmas gifts and hampers etc but we lived very lean with rent being often so dear...
we moved a lot and there was a lot of instability with schools and shifting so much n in my fathers employment
and certainly the early and mid 70's we didn't have a lot once the house fire happened my mum lost a lot of things ... even her satin wedding dress was destroyed and other things you would want to keep...
comparing my mother and fathers teens and young adult life I did not have professional tennis lessons or nice things nor could we afford college fees ... but I am grateful for getting to university and that we had the house given to us ....by my grandfather but we have paid a million fold for any good that came from having the house... it came too late in life like everything !!!
I saved for music and singing lessons and I had to give a large chuck of my austudy to my mother for board to cover rent, and rates etc
I was bullied molested and sexually assaulted often ... I was taunted by relatives and friends of the family and by teachers and kids at school... and felt backward most of my life... I have had a birthday party as a child and I never had a boyfriend.... I never had a job as a teen either... or mobile or car or watches ... etc
the worst birthday was 1978 when werner suicided and a man tipped up the car with us kids in it... and I was tortured and terrorized by violent men and nutcases hitting cricket balls into my head etc
I was rarely hugged ... never told I was pretty or polite or clever ... only werner said nice things to me... but I paid a price for werner as he did also...

yes and no. i received a lot of material stuff due to the fact my parents were divorced and both sides of the family were competing to make the other look bad. I was disciplined though.

Hell no, my first paying job was in a slaughter house, feeding cut wood into a wood burning stove. i was paid 10 cents per hr. Lord i was rich. i went and bought my two best friends a coke at the firehouse. Peggy and Ken where my best friends. That girl played fullback and tackle on our pick-up football teams. At sixty-five, i am comfortable and will also remember those tomes. Peace p.s. The cokes cost 15 cents for three and i banked the other 5 cents.

I had a strict healthy diet, curfews, groundings, talks. There was alot of care from my parents to make sure I turned out alright, and in that way I feel spoiled for their love.
Course - I also got drum lessons, piano lessons, dance lessons, violin lessons, swimming lessons, theatre club, ballet, lots of toys, pocket money, a holiday a year, a few personal pets and fun birthday parties (with endless presents). It took a careful balance, but I'd like to say they did a good job.

Spoiled by a 100% mother. I am grateful for my childhood. But she always set limits clear enough to be followed and respected. I am who I am because of them both parents. A nice kid fit everywhere.
