From Innocence to Entitlement

From Innocence to Entitlement: A Love And Logic Cure for the Tragedy of EntitlementFrom Innocence to Entitlement: A Love And Logic Cure for the Tragedy of Entitlement by Jim Fay

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

The first 6 Chapters of this book are absolutely 5 stars. Should be required reading for all parents. Completely right on about entitlement and children. I thought the information was equally applicable to adults. You must read this book just for the first chapters.

After such a great beginning, I was very disappointed in Chapters 7-9, the "application" chapters. I was hoping for very clear "how to's" to deal with situations. No such luck. The behavior suggestions didn't always match-up with what they were trying to teach. Often the section ended without really clarifying the lesson. Bummer. Still worth reading.

(Also a quick read, only about 100ish pages. It doesn't ramble on and on.)
