A great book for today’s parents.

"Raising Grateful Kids in an Entitled World" tackles the challenge of fostering an appreciative spirit in children growing up in a world that often emphasizes instant gratification and material possessions.

Here are 7 lessons from the book:

1. The Power of "No" and Setting Boundaries: While it might feel counterintuitive, setting boundaries and saying no to children's demands can be a powerful tool for raising grateful kids. This teaches them delayed gratification, the value of hard work, and the importance of appreciating what they already have.

2. Distinguishing Needs vs. Wants: A crucial step is helping children understand the difference between necessities (food, shelter, clothing) and desires (latest gadgets, extra treats). By guiding them to prioritize needs and appreciate the effort behind fulfilling them, you cultivate a foundation for gratitude.

3. Building a Gratitude Routine: The book introduces simple practices like gratitude journals or regular "gratitude moments" at the dinner table. These routines encourage children to reflect on the positive aspects of their lives, fostering an appreciative mindset that becomes second nature.

4. Fostering a Culture of Work and Contribution: Assigning household chores and other responsibilities teaches valuable life skills and instills a sense of accomplishment. When children contribute to the household, they gain a deeper appreciation for the effort involved in maintaining a comfortable life.

5. Breaking the Cycle of Entitlement: The book also explores how our own anxieties about saying no or spoiling our children can contribute to an entitled attitude. Welch offers strategies to overcome these fears and approach parenting with a focus on raising grateful individuals.

6. The Value of Delayed Gratification: Learning to wait for things they desire can be a powerful lesson in appreciating what they eventually receive. The book offers tips on how to encourage children to save up for desired items or patiently wait for special occasions, teaching them the value of delayed gratification.

7. Importance of Perspective Taking: Encouraging children to consider the work and resources behind the things they enjoy, like a delicious meal or a comfortable home, can foster gratitude. By helping them see the bigger picture, they develop an appreciation for the effort that goes into providing for them.
