This was a great episode. So much parenting advice is geared towards empathizing with our kids. It's clearly gotten out of hand and now we're supposed to act as some sort of servant always pliant and available.

It's not sustainable.

I highly suggest the PEP course on encouragement - it was instrumental in turning things around for us with similar issues.
