Every morning, the Hubs drives Tee to school in a rush. This little girl, she takes an entire 40 minutes at least, to get herself ready with breakfast and all. From our place, he has to make a slight detour to her school and then zoom off to KLCC. But despite the rush, he still doesn’t drop her off at the school’s front gate. No…….

Instead, he parks a hundred meters away, and makes her walk a hundred meters to school. With him, of course. He has several reasons for this. He feels that parking a distance away is faster than fighting the queue with the other Moms in doing the drop off at the gate. It is a continuation of his Daddy-Daughter time from the drive from home. He told Tee it is their morning stroll together, something special, a walk to school. He wants her not to be lazy and spoilt. She needs to use those legs!

Recently, Tee came home complaining that she is the only kid that has to walk to school and all the other kids get dropped off in front. At most, they have to cross the street with their Mommies or walk just a little bit from their cars, but her? She has to walk a full marathon. It wasn’t fair. Her leg muscles were so strong now and her hand muscles never get used. We should tell Daddy that we need to strike a balance – one day walk, one day carry. Carry? We? Since when did I get involved in this? Carry? How old is she now?

I told her to discuss it with her Dad and she immediately brushed it off knowing full well that she’d never get anywhere with him. He was a strict Dad after all despite how much he adores her.

That night, I told the Hubs about Tee’s complaint and urged him not to be so tough on her. He gave me that look. That look which said, “Stop babying her!” But she is my baby……

So as it stands, Tee is still strengthening those muscular thighs and calves on a daily basis without any more complaints. What about you? Do you spoil your children this way or do you make them work?
