Victoria Beckham and David Beckham: Controversy over how to raise daughter Harper Seven
The Beckham family, with the fame of Victoria Beckham and David Beckham, has always been the center of attention of the media and the public. However, recently, the way these two famous stars raise their youngest daughter Harper Seven has sparked many conflicting opinions. While David has been criticized for spoiling his daughter too much, Victoria is accused of keeping her distance and showing little affection for Harper.
David Beckham and “unlimited pampering”
David Beckham, a famous former soccer player, is often praised as a devoted father. However, some people think that he is pampering Harper too much, making her the “princess” of the family.
David does not hesitate to share sweet moments with Harper on social networks, from going shopping together, attending fashion events, to often holding her and showing affection in public. This has made many people wonder: has David’s love unintentionally caused Harper to lack independence and form a dependent mentality?
Some netizens believe that although loving her child is natural, the way David shows it can sometimes cause Harper to lack necessary lessons about discipline and self-responsibility.
In contrast to David, Victoria Beckham rarely shows intimacy with Harper in public. Many people commented that, in family photos or everyday moments, Victoria often keeps her distance and does not show much affection for her daughter.
Some sources said that Victoria is always busy with her fashion business and personal career, making it difficult for her to spend time with Harper like David. This has led many people to criticize her as a “cold” and “unemotional” mother.
However, there are also opinions defending Victoria, saying that she wants Harper to learn to be independent and grow up in an environment without the pressure of media attention. Victoria once shared that she wants her children, including Harper, to understand the value of work and effort, instead of just relying on the family’s reputation.
The difference in the way Victoria and David raise Harper not only reflects their personalities, but also shows different views on child education.
David represents protection, unlimited love, always giving his daughter maximum attention. Meanwhile, Victoria has a more practical approach, focusing on teaching her children to be independent and face the challenges of life.
However, both styles have their strengths and weaknesses. Excessive indulgence can cause children to lack life skills, but strictness or distance can also create a feeling of abandonment or lack of love.
The Beckhams have long been a symbol of perfection in the eyes of the public. However, the story of how they raised Harper Seven shows that no one can please everyone. Whether criticized or supported, the most important thing is the love that both Victoria and David have for their daughter.
Parenting is always a challenging process, even for celebrities. Instead of criticizing, perhaps we should look at things more fairly and respect their personal choices.
