[quote=Anonymous]We know some kids like this, ages 7 and 8. They seem to behave this way when uncomfortable. In our case, it is when we are only offering them analog and unstructured options at our place, like playing outside with our kid. They have come to expect that all activities are scaffolded and prepared for them, and if not, that they should have access to a screen so it’s actually fun. We don’t raise our kid this way at all, but her friends who are used to unfettered YouTube access and messaging apps and Roblox tend to struggle at our place… and also haven’t really asked to come back / be invited back. These same kids also have high expectations for snacks tailored to them and definitely come across as entitled.[/quote]
