... Especially when both of my kids (18 & 20) act like they are part of the "entitlement program" and act like me and their dad were the worst parents on the planet. Sorry ya'll ~ guess reading this put me in a sad mood
Hi Kim!
There's no need to feel sad.
Kids will try to "guilt" their parents to giving into their wishes.
I believe that this happens more these days due to the "entitlement" mentality in our culture.
There were times years ago that my kids acted this way.
You and your hubby should just stand your ground and don't give in.
Trust me... Your kids will (eventually) respect you much more if you do. That was the case with my kids.
Now that they're all grown, we have a fantastic relationships with each other!
And, they are well equipped to successfully raise their own families.
Just hang in there kiddo!
Tony
