About this listen

Whenever Amy McCready mentions the "entitlement epidemic" to a group of parents, she is inevitably met with eye rolls, nodding heads, and loaded comments about affected children. It seems everywhere one looks, there are preschoolers who only behave in the grocery store for a treat, narcissistic teenagers posting selfies across all forms of social media, and adult children living off their parents.

Parenting expert Amy McCready reveals in this book that the solution is to help kids develop healthy attitudes in life. By setting up limits with consequences and training them in responsible behavior and decision making, parents can rid their homes of the entitlement epidemic and raise confident, resilient, and successful children. Whether parents are starting from scratch with a young toddler or navigating the teen years, they will find in this book proven strategies to effectively quell entitled attitudes in their children.

Amazing message - a bit outdated with language

This program is amazing! I did go through Amy’s membership program with all three of my kids. And I come back to it often as a reminder when things start feeling a bit out of control in my house and it instantly put everyone in a better place. I would 100% recommend following this program.

As for the actual book and the audio book reading. I’m finding the language harder to listen too. I wish they would update the reader so that the voice isn’t so whiny when she is reading the kids portion. Or maybe that’s the point.

Eye opening!

I kind of felt like I failed as a parent. I am very glad that I will be able to help my children with their children. I think everybody should take a few pages out of this book and make them part of their lives.
