Mom's Brave Experiment to Transform Her Entitled Family
![Jese Leos](https://magazine.bccbooking.com/author/drew-bell.jpg)
Imagine a home where chores are done without nagging, homework is completed independently, and respect is a given.
For Sarah Jane, this was not the reality she was living in. As a mother of three, she found herself constantly battling entitlement issues with her children. Chores were a source of conflict, homework was a daily struggle, and simple requests were met with resistance.

Determined to create a more harmonious and respectful home, Sarah embarked on a year-long experiment to transform her family's attitude towards entitlement. Her mission was simple: to teach her children the values of responsibility, gratitude, and self-reliance.
Month One: Setting Boundaries
Sarah started by establishing clear boundaries and expectations. She explained to her children that everyone in the family had responsibilities, regardless of age. Chores, homework, and helping out around the house were no longer optional.
She made sure to involve the children in the process, allowing them to choose which chores they wanted to do and setting realistic expectations for completion.
Month Two: Encouraging Gratitude
Next, Sarah focused on fostering gratitude in her children. She encouraged them to express appreciation for the things they had and the people who cared for them. Every evening, they shared at least three things they were grateful for.
She also made a point of acknowledging the children's efforts and accomplishments, no matter how small.
Month Three: Promoting Self-Reliance
One of the biggest challenges for Sarah was promoting self-reliance in her children. She started by giving them more opportunities to make their own choices and take responsibility for their actions.
Instead of nagging them to do their homework, she encouraged them to set their own study schedules. Instead of reminding them of their chores, she let them decide when and how to complete them.
Month Four: Teaching Empathy
Sarah realized that empathy was a crucial element in combating entitlement. She taught her children to put themselves in the shoes of others and understand their perspectives.
They participated in volunteer activities, read books about different cultures, and discussed the importance of considering the needs of others.
Month Five: Fostering Intrinsic Motivation
Sarah discovered that intrinsic motivation was more effective than external rewards or punishments. She focused on helping her children find purpose and enjoyment in their responsibilities.
Instead of offering allowances for chores, she highlighted the benefits of tidiness and cleanliness. Instead of rewarding good grades, she emphasized the value of learning and personal growth.
Month Six: Building Relationships
Throughout the experiment, Sarah made a conscious effort to build stronger relationships with her children. She spent quality time with each of them, listened to their concerns, and validated their feelings.
She realized that a strong and supportive bond was essential for fostering a positive and respectful home environment.
Month Seven: Celebrating Successes
As her children gradually overcame their entitlement issues, Sarah celebrated their successes, big and small. She praised their efforts, acknowledged their progress, and reminded them of how far they had come.
These celebrations not only reinforced positive behavior but also boosted their confidence and self-esteem.
Month Eight: Reflecting and Refining
Halfway through her experiment, Sarah took time to reflect on her progress and refine her strategies. She identified areas where she could improve her communication, support her children more effectively, and foster a more positive family culture.
Month Nine: Sharing Lessons Learned
As Sarah's experiment progressed, she shared her insights and experiences with other parents. She started a blog, gave presentations, and wrote a book to inspire and support families struggling with entitlement issues.
Her goal was to empower parents with the tools and strategies they needed to create more harmonious and respectful homes.
Month Ten: Reaffirming Values
In the tenth month, Sarah focused on reaffirming the values she had instilled in her children. She reminded them of the importance of responsibility, gratitude, self-reliance, empathy, and intrinsic motivation.
She also established family traditions and rituals that reinforced these values and fostered a sense of belonging and purpose.
Month Eleven: Celebrating Transformation
As the experiment drew to a close, Sarah and her family celebrated the extraordinary transformation they had undergone. Their home was now a place of respect, cooperation, and self-sufficiency.
The children took pride in their contributions, expressed gratitude for their blessings, and embraced challenges with enthusiasm.
Month Twelve: Passing on the Legacy
In the final month, Sarah shared her experiences and lessons with her extended family and community. She encouraged others to adopt similar principles and values in their homes.
She knew that the legacy of her experiment would extend far beyond her own family, inspiring countless others to create more fulfilling and harmonious living environments.
Sarah Jane's year-long experiment was not without its challenges, but the results were undeniable. By challenging entitlement, fostering responsibility, and nurturing gratitude, she transformed her family's dynamics and created a home where everyone flourished.
Her journey is a testament to the power of parental leadership, the importance of setting clear boundaries, and the transformative impact of teaching children the values that truly matter.
