[quote=Anonymous]While the issues OP raises are important (delayed gratification, saving, community service) are important, it's equally important to instill respect and caring in day to day life. While our kids are important and the center of our world, they are not the center of the world. From a very young age, I tried to teach this - even at 18 months. You don't get to say mean things, even in anger. You talk about your day but ask about everyone else's - and you listen to the response and even ask questions. Never is it ok to demand and you always need to say thank you. You don't interupt others or change the subject during a conversation to,focus attention on you when there is not a natural segue. You take turns at choosing an activity during playtime. [/quote]
