Does your teen claim they’re the last person on earth with an iPhone 12? Or maybe your younger child is begging for a Barbie dreamhouse with a party room and pool while you’re still saving for a dishwasher that works. Entitlement can sneak into our homes, especially during the holidays, but there’s hope!

In this episode, we’ll explore 5 practical ways to address entitlement in kids. From getting them involved in chores to fostering gratitude, we’ll discuss how to redirect their focus from “I deserve” to “I appreciate.” Plus, we’ll tackle the tricky "But everyone has one!" conversation with humor and grace.

If you’re tired of the “I want it now” attitude, tune in to learn how to cultivate responsibility, generosity, and contentment in your kids this holiday season.

Wendy Gossett helps parents understand their children by using temperament psychology and neuroscience. She has over 10,000 hours of experience in education, both in the classroom and corporate sector. Even though she holds a Master’s degree in education, she struggled to understand her neurodivergent and oppositional kids. Inspired by her experience using Myers Briggs and the Enneagram with business teams, she spent over a decade researching temperament pattens to help family teams. She is a best-selling author and host of the Not So Normal Parenting podcast.

Her podcast is entitled Not So Normal Parenting because not only are she and her kids neurodivergent but some of her life experiences, such as driving off a cliff her wedding night and going viral for embarrassing her seventeen-year old son by dancing on a snowy and jammed interstate, fall into that category. In addition to being talked about by Hoda Kotb, the BackStreet Boys, and Princess Kate, even U2 singer Bono mentioned the incident in his autobiography.

Because Wendy herself has struggled as a helicopter parent, a cranky parent and an embarrassing parent, she wants to help other parents struggle……..a little bit less!
