But some families go above and beyond that for their little darlings, eager — perhaps overeager — to make sure their little darlings have the latest Lego toys and American Girl dolls. And now, a consumer rating and market research site can tell you where these kids live.
According to Bundle.com, the most spoiled children in America are in New York City, where parents spending nearly double that of the average U.S. household on toys, clothes and other services for their kids. The runner-up is Brooklyn, just over the East River — technically, a borough of the Big Apple itself.
Miami comes in third place, but whats surprising is that even-keeled Minneapolis comes in at fourth place. Residents there spend about 50 percent more than the average parent. Fifth place goes to Tulsa, Oklahoma.
