Spoiled: Fresh Ideas For Parenting Your Entitled Child -- At Any Age

We live in the age of the Entitled Child. Many books have been written about entitlement and entitled children. This is not another one. Peggy Harper Lee's book "Spoiled", by contrast, is written for and about the parents of an entitled child. Whether you know you have an entitled child and want to change your relationship, wondering if you have an entitled child and want to learn the signs so you can be sure, or you've been warned that your child is in danger of becoming an entitled child, this book is for you! Throughout this journey of the entitled child, Lee examines what an entitled child looks, sounds and acts like at every stage from infant to adult. She explores the strategies that you as a parent can use to effectively build a new relationship with your entitled child.

Peggy Harper Lee is a mother of four children, ages three to 28. Mothering over almost three decades has given her a unique vantage point of the rising entitlement culture and the devastation it brings to families. Working with clients in her financial advisory practice has been the most telling. Clients have shared with her the financial devastation that overindulgence, overprotection, and free-range parenting have wrought on families not to mention the damaged relationships. In the trenches with other parents and children as a community volunteer and with her own extended family she has discovered how to help parents recognize and learn the skills needed to raise children to responsible and successful adulthood. Parenting is a skill, one that can be taught, and she is passionate about bringing resources and tools to those rearing our precious babies. She lives in Rocklin, California with her husband and two youngest children. This is her first book.
