We know you’ll love to be convinced you’re raising a cute little angel. And you want to hear people say it and commend you for it. We all do. Or at least, most of us.

But how well or badly are you doing at this important job? It’s natural to want to see your kid smile and laugh, but there’s just a fine line between doing everything absolutely necessary to keep him happy and, well, raising a brat.

That is not to say your child won’t have his moments of tantrums regardless of how generally well behaved he is. It’s okay if your super-sweet kiddo slacks off and throws a tantrum once in a while. That won’t make him less precious. You know, perfection can sometimes get boring too .

So, how well are you raising your child? Take this short quiz to find out yourself! We have coloured in green what we think are the most reasonable answers in green.
