I have heard a lot about this book, and have wished that it was around when I was raising mine. There is def a shift in society today than there was years ago, and that is a hard challenge for the young people today. Especially when society continues to tell them that they DESERSVE stuff.

I think I'll give a copy to each of my kids when they have babies.

I need it. The book and a way for my children to have more responsibilty and ownership. If only their mom wasn't such a crazy control freak…

Have you looked at myjobchart.com? I like it because it is an easy set up and the kids can chart it themselves. If they don't, they don't get the rewards. Just an idea. Oh and it is free

Finding that magic chart/schedule is so hard, isn't it? I am still trying to get it all figured out. Thanks for the review. I am going to have to look into it.

I definitely know I need to work on this myself. Thanks for the review!

Oh, I've been wondering about this book. I read a summary of it and started getting ideas about the money aspect. I love the idea of having kids earn money and then buy all their own things. That's what I did as a kid (with babysitting money). And I have no entitlement issues. 🙂 Thanks for the review.

Also, thanks for the article! You did a fabulous job of condensing all the information I gave you (sorry!). I look forward to reading your future articles, too! Aweseome!

I've heard a lot about this book as well. It sounds like it addresses some of the things I've been worrying about with my kids. I've put it on hold at the library.
