We often say that sharing is caring, but it seems that many parents don’t agree.
Kiara Blanco, from Florida, took to social media criticizing parents for taking toys to public parks and not sharing them with other children.

In the clip, she said: “Don’t take toys to the park unless you and your children are ready and willing to share.
“I don’t think it’s fair that you take toys to a place where there will be a lot of kids and you’re not willing to share the toys with the other kids.”
Not sharing, Kiara continued, is “wrong” and “cruel,” which is why she advocates leaving toys at home.
She continued, “And yes, kids need to know, okay, this is mine, this is mine.
“Teach your children.
“But at the same time, I feel like it’s just cruel.”
“I may be the only person with this opinion, but I have seen this many times when I go to the park,” she said.
Kiara went on to say that she holds on to her world and also doesn’t allow her own children to take toys to the park.
“We don’t take toys to the park for this reason.”
The 22-year-old mother faced backlash from those who saw the video.
Many argued that it was wrong to insist that children share their toys if they didn’t want to, especially with strangers.
The clip has since gone viral on her TikTok account @kiaraizabella with more than 622 thousand views and 9,000 likes.
People were quick to share their thoughts in the comments and many disagreed with the mother.
One person wrote: “I want to be that delulu.”
Different Parenting Styles Explained
There are four recognized parenting styles explained below:
Authoritative Parenting
What some might describe as “regimental” or “strict” parenting.
Parents with this style focus on strict rules, obedience, and discipline.
Authoritarian parents assume decision-making power, rarely giving their children any input on the matter.
When it comes to rules, you believe it’s “my way or the highway.”
Permissive Parenting
Often referred to as ‘soft parenting’ or ‘yes moms/dads’.
Permissive parents are tolerant and only intervene when there is a serious problem.
They are very forgiving and adopt a “kids will be kids” attitude.
They often act more like friends than authority figures.
Authorized Parenthood
Authoritarian parents provide rules and limits to their children, but they also give them freedom to make decisions.
With an authoritarian parenting style, parents validate their children’s feelings while making it clear that adults are ultimately in charge.
They use positive reinforcement techniques, such as praise and reward systems, as opposed to harsh punishments.
Neglectful or uninvolved parenting
Essentially, neglectful parents ignore their children, who receive little guidance, affection and attention from their parents.
They don’t set rules or expectations and tend to have minimal knowledge about what their children are doing.
Uninvolved parents expect their children to raise themselves. They don’t devote much time or energy to meeting children’s basic needs.
Uninvolved parents can be negligent, but it is not always intentional. A parent with mental health or substance abuse issues, for example, may not be able to consistently care for a child’s physical or emotional needs.
Another commented: “Teach your kids about personal space and belongings.”
“Why do people have such a right to other people’s belongings?” wrote a third.
Meanwhile, a fourth said: “Well, life isn’t fair.”
““Don’t bring your bag unless you’re willing to share what’s inside,” said a fifth.
Someone else added: “My kids definitely don’t need to share their toys… I don’t know how anyone feels about that!!!”
