Sharing is caring, right? But what about sharing things that you've won fair and square? Should kids learn to give those up as well?
A big part of teaching kids to socialize is for them to learn how to share. Whether it’s toys or food,need to know they can’t always have everything for themselves. Sharing is caring, after all, right? But what about sharing things that they’ve won fair and square? Should they learn to give those up as well?about whether she was right not to make her son share his raffle toy prize.
“That’s what it would feel like for a child to be given two new toys and be told to give the other one away.” She says that whether this could’ve been a teaching moment really depends on the child’s age. As the mother mentioned her kids are both old enough not to“I would make it the child’s choice to share the other toy,” she somewhat agrees with the OP’s decision. “I’d first have a chat with my child and let them think about it. Let them try on how it feels.
She says that this is perhaps a bigger learning experience for the child who didn’t get the toy car. She has someof the other kid: “If the other child doesn’t share with them, coach them through how that feels. Don’t fix it or promise to make it up to them. Your child may be more generous to others the next time they are given an abundance.”She argues that the kid who didn’t win anything actually got the better end of the stick in the long term.
