One of today’s parenting hot topics is children and their sense of entitlement. Speaker Teresa Drake (who did a great talk last year on Anger Management for moms) identifies some of the root causes of “entitlement” as she addresses our culture of over-parenting, over-scheduling, and over-indulging our children – which often produces self-centered children who lack gratitude, empathy, problem solving skills and other basic abilities. “Raising Community-Minded Kids” offers easy and useful, age-appropriate ideas to counter this growing problem. Moms will learn ways to foster a We-focused attitude in the hearts of their children, instead of a Me-focused attitude, ranging from simple chores completed at home — a child’s first community — up through adolescence. As always, childcare is free and there will be a light breakfast. See you there!
