About this episode

One challenge is that many trends in our culture seem to encourage entitlement, so modern parents need to be especially watchful. Learn the causes of this behavior and what parents can do to teach something better. Visit FirstAnswers.com to find answers for 21st-century parents and more about the podcast.
