The parents of the seven siblings from 'My Precious Child' shocked viewers by not showing gratitude to their third child, who is taking on the burden of caregiving, but instead using harsh words.
On the broadcast of Channel A's 'Current Parenting - My Precious Child' on the 22nd, the story of 'parents who disappear every night and the foul-mouthed seven siblings' revealed serious problems with the parents.
In the video that day, it was revealed that the biggest problem lies not with the foul-mouthed fifth child but with the parents. While the parents were away, the third child naturally took care of the youngest sibling, who is just 4 months old, and the fourth child in place of their mom and dad. The third child eventually showed tears over the housework that continued until late at night.
Later, during a family outing, the third child took care of the fourth child in place of their unmoving mother and father. The third child lamented, "I don't want to do parenting," but the reply was a nagging, "If you don't want to take care of the baby, you should just go to school."
The father even reacted angrily to the third child's words, saying "I want to leave home," "I want to go to a school with dorms," and "I don't want to see my siblings," cursing and responding, "Are you an outsider? Even kids staying at a boarding house have to pay for their meals," which was shocking.
Dr. Oh Eun-young asked the parents, "What do you think No. 3 is struggling with?" When the parents replied, "Honestly, we don't know anything other than parenting," Dr. Oh responded, "This is a big problem. You need to raise them properly. Having seven children doesn't automatically make you an expert in parenting. But the expert in parenting in this home is the third child. The third child has become the parent."
"Children need to be in their position. The third child is placed in the position of a parent. They are like a mother. Right now, the fourth is treating them like a mother. But parents and children are not in the same position. They are not at the same level. This doesn't stop there; they don't express basic appreciation and gratitude. They take it for granted. Why is there no recognition of the legitimacy and validity of the third child's struggles?" Dr. Oh pointed out the issues.
