As a middle school teacher, lately I've noticed a lot of greedy, entitled children who don't seem to realize that they are not the only ones in the room. For example, if there are enough snacks for 30 people, sometimes three or four kids will take many times their own share, so ten or twelve kids won't get any. And we've all experienced holding a bowl of Halloween candy, expecting each child to select one, but some children reach in and take all they can possibly grab. Allowing your child to behave this way does not benefit your child! Take a look at this terrific article on why kids are entitled and how to avoid it. It's written for teachers, but is perfect for parents as well. I'm absolutely certain you don't want your child's teacher to feel about him or her the way I do about some of the kids in my class.
