[quote=Anonymous]Definitely volunteer time. There is a list of places that allow children to volunteer on the our-kids.com resource list. Have him pick a charity or two and contribute a small part of his allowance each week. Start a family tradition of naming one thing each person is thankful for and why during dinner each night. Have him write thank you notes for gifts. Stop buying him little things here and there and have him earn and allowance for things he'd like to purchase. Expect a few weekly chores he does because he is part of the family and another chore or two for the allowance. On top of that have him find one other helpful thing to do around the house each day. If you are religious be sure he is participating in Sunday school and take advantage of your school's or church's youth volunteer efforts. [/quote]
