Yeah. I have noticed people usually either repeat what their parents did and others tend toward doing the opposite. I like to think I have been able to do a bit of both. But in certain areas I struggle to be balanced.

It’s hard hey you go more the way you didn’t have it and sometimes can go to far if we aren’t careful

Parents corner : how do you avoid entitlement in your kids

This is a tough one. My father was really strict with me in terms of teaching me about hard work. As a result, I kind of went the other way with my kids. I like to make everything easy for them. It's hard to know when to step back and let them fail and struggle. I trust they will learn about hard work eventually.
