Pampered children do not always means received too much love; rather, they feel unloved. Their parents have demonstrated a lack of love by doing too much for
them and by treating them as if they were incapable of solving their own problems. Because these children feel pampered and spoiled, they develop a pampered style of
life. Pampered children may also feel neglected. According to Cambridge Advance‘s Learners Dictionary 2010 neglect means
give not enough care or attention to people or things that are your responsibility Abused and mistreated children develop little social interest and tend to create a
neglected style of life. They have little confidence in themselves and tend to solve the difficulties connec
ted with life‘s major problems hardly. Jarvis 2004: 90 stated that they are distrustful of other people and are unable
to cooperate for the common welfare. They see society as enemy country; feel alienated from all other people, and experience a strong sense of envy toward the
success of others. Neglected children have many of the characteristics of pampered ones, but generally they are more suspicious and more likely to be dangerous to
others.
