Cleaning House: A Mom's Twelve-Month Experiment to Rid Her Home of Youth Entitlement - Kay Wills Wyma

Descriere Cleaning House: A Mom's Twelve-Month Experiment to Rid Her Home of Youth Entitlement - Kay Wills Wyma

Parents often hover, race in to save, and do everything for kids. When Wyma realized that an attitude of entitlement had crept into her home, this mother of five got some attitude of her own. This is her account of a year-long campaign to introduce her kids to basic life skills. \n \nIs Your Home Out of Order? \n \nDo your kids expect clean folded clothes to magically appear in their drawers? Do they roll their eyes when you suggest they clean the bathroom? By racing in to make their lives easy, have you unintentionally reinforced your children's belief that the world revolves around them? \n \nDismayed at the attitude of entitlement that had crept into her home, Kay Wyma got some attitude of her own. Cleaning House is her account of a year-long campaign to introduce her five kids to basic life skills and the ways meaningful work can increase earned self-confidence and concern for others. \n \nWith irresistible humor and refreshing insights, Kay candidly details the ups and downs of equipping her kids for such tasks as making beds, refinishing a deck chair, and working together. The changes that take place in her household will inspire you to launch your own campaign to dislodge your kids from the center of their universe. \n \nIf you want your children to be more responsible, more self-assured, and more empathetic, Cleaning House is for you. \n--Jim Daly, president of Focus on the Family\n
