until I read that subtitle. Youth Entitlement. That was a subject I thought had merit.
In her book, Kay Wills Wyma shares her real-life "experiment" in helping her children overcome some of the entitlement issues that are facing most of our youth today.
I appreciate her honesty! She doesn't have it all together and neither does her children. I can learn from a real person.
Each month she undertook a new chore or responsibility for her children. She shares stories about how the new aspect of the experiment went. She ends each chapter telling not only what her children learned that month but also what she learned that month.
She writes with humor which makes a book with some pretty deep thoughts a fun and easy read. In addition to giving her ideas, she provides ideas from her "Ironing Board" who are a group of her friends and mentors.
I highly recommend this book.
When I first started reading, I was a little concerned about what seemed a lack of God in the content, but was pleased to see as the experiment continued, she could see and share more of God's work through it all.
Convicting and comic.
Encouraging and entertaining.
Realistic and rallying.
Honesty and humor.
Find Kay on her blog or on Facebook.
I received this book for free from WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group for this review
