I have been on a bit of a soap box lately... kinda. One morning last week, I was at my last straw with the kids. It has been said time and time again that this generation is Entitled. I am sick of it! My job is NOT to be at your beck and call whenever you want to go somewhere or do something!
I went to work and my mind reflected on a book I had seen advertised as "coming soon" a few months ago. I hopped on Amazon.com and typed in... The Entitlement Trap The book I had remembered came up and I decided there was no way I was just going to place an order. In my own... must have it now kind of way... I wanted to know NOW how to make this stop! So, I downloaded Kindle for computer and bought the book. I am HOOKED!! I highly recommend it. My husband is still a little shell shocked as I have insisted that we cancel all the kids' cell phones and cease immediately to ever hand over cash or accept "I'll pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today" type metality. I want to create a family mission statement, laws, economy and immerse the children in service.
Read the book. Really. It is changing my view in a big big way!
