Entitlement among children

Air Date: 05/15/12 This week Cheryl continues discussion of entitlement among children engaged in last week.  Sometimes the hard choice of children rescuing themselves instead of parents buffering children from any and all pain and suffering is the best choice.  She suggests teaching ideas to instill in them compassion and gratitude.  She invites parents to encourage character and not fleeting happiness.  Join us.   Parenting with Cheryl Erwine airs every Tuesday morning on 88.7 FM, KUNR, and can be reached at 775-331-6723 or cheryl.erwine@sbcglobal.net.
