I mean seriously i have a cousin who is so spoiled it is annoying. I mean i cant even watch TV without him trying to watch His shows even though there is a TV IN HIS HOUSE.

It is his mother's fault.

Do not ask me to explain why

There's a challenge to parenting - What can you do?

TAKE THE LEAD:  Your child will not accept your Role as a leader unless he sees you taking the lead.  So, in a balanced way, you need to assert your authority.  In recent decades,  some so-called experts have made the word "authority" sound harsh.  One even calls parental authority "unethical" and "immoral".  But the alternative-permissiveness-can leave children feeling confused, indulged, and entitled.  It does little to prepare them for responsible adulthood.  Proverbs 23:13.

1)  EMPLOY DISCIPLINE.  2) BE CLEAR,  3)  BE DECISIVE.  4)  BE LOVING

The family is neither a democracy nor a dictatorship.  Rather, it is a God-given arrangement in which children can be lovingly guided toward responsible adulthood.  As part of that process, discipline will teach your child to obey and help him feel secure in your love.
