10 Ways You’re Definitely Ruining Your Kid’s Life

Everyone wants to do right by their kids.

And sometimes, you might be making your kid absolutely miserable without even knowing it.

1. Public Discipline

Sometimes kids misbehave and need to be disciplined. However, in a public place, in a very public way, is not appropriate.

2. Encouraging the “Everyone’s A Winner” Mentality
