Antidotes to the Traps of Entitlement and Yelling

<p>We all want our kids to be grateful when we give them wonderful experiences in life, and it can be alarming when they not only don’t show gratitude, but are full of complaints. In this episode, we address this issue and discuss how we can cultivate gratitude without layering on guilt for our kids.</p> <p>We also talk about one of our most common questions ever: yelling. It is sooooo easy to get caught up in the habit of yelling, and sometimes we can feel trapped because we don’t know how else to get our kids to listen. We give several concrete strategies to help this common issue, not just a philosophical discussion on the topic.</p> <p>RELATED EPISODES</p> <p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/find-the-magic/id1448424341?i=1000431041062"><u>Tantrums, Screen Time, and Breaking Out of a Funk</u></a></p> <p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/find-the-magic/id1448424341?i=1000430103708"><u>Parenting with Unconditional Love&nbsp;</u></a></p> <p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/find-the-magic/id1448424341?i=1000490361958"><u>Systems and Values for Easier Days and Stronger Family Connections (Entitlement Trap by Linda and Richard Eyre)&nbsp;</u></a></p> <p>BOOKS AND LINKS WE MENTIONED</p> <p><a href="https://amzn.to/3oxRytP"><u>The Entitlement Trap</u></a> // Richard and Linda Eyre</p> <p>Janet Lansbury’s<a href="https://www.janetlansbury.com/"><u> Website</u></a></p> <p><strong>EPISODE SPONSORS:</strong></p> <p><a href="https://apps.apple.com/us/app/mamazen-mindful-parenting-app/id1523198397"><u><strong>MamaZen</strong></u></a><strong>: Mindful Parenting App</strong></p> <p>If you’re experiencing impatience, anger, anxiety, and feel frustrated with your kids, then you need to get this app. MamaZen will teach you how to control your negative emotions so you can deal with your kids’ difficult behavior with more love and patience.
