Somehow the word "entitlement" has grown to represent children in America today. It's not entirely new -- Kids are selfish by nature, yet the culture we are raising them in reinforces a spirit of entitlement. Yet, we are not without hope! And you are not alone!    Join Steph Thurling - Executive Director at Christian Parenting, and host of the Christian Parenting Podcast – and I as we talk about ways to cultivate gratitude and fight entitlement in kids, young and old alike! From family prayer ideas, to giving kids work to do (in and outside the house!) this conversation is honest and practical. (Steph and I are in the trenches alongside all of you!) Find show notes and links at:    http://www.monicaswanson.com/steph-gratitude  My Character Training Course doors are NOW OPEN (for one week only!) Be sure to check out the course page and see what is in the course! (Including an entire bonus Module on teaching kids to be grateful and fighting entitlment!) Also find the NEW video of my son, Luke, giving all of the kids a pep talk on the topic of living a disciplined lifestyle (with a printable list of 5 key disciplines included!)
