How to use "Doting" in context?
Doting is an act of extravagance or excess that shows undue concern for or attachment to someone or something. It usually refers to a father or mother's excessive fondness for their children or pets. Doting can have a negative impact on children because it can make them feel special only when they are meeting the parents' expectations, rather than developing their own skills and independence. It can also make the children dependent on their parents and make them keep to a tight schedule so that they can spend more time with them. Pets can also suffer from the doting lifestyle.
