[quote=Anonymous]Lots of noise here but let me try to cut through all of the extra: - kids learn from modeling our (parents/community) behavior, not by being told what to do - you run a very real risk of making her even more selfish if you psychologically link negative experiences with the concepts of charity and empathy You need to back off from the heavy handed tactics and instead demonstrate your family values over the long term through action. Then you just hope for the best and realize that kids can explore different values in teenage years just to end up returning to their core experiences as an adult as they mature. Your job is to plant the seed and then hope for the best. [/quote]
