#entitlement

Based on my years of coaching parents of entitled adult children, I see the emotional toll parents pay when anticipating the next crisis that pops up on their text messages or literally on their doorstep. Perhaps it is a pressured plea for financial support laden with irrational reasoning ("You never did crap for me, so now I need you to step up for me, finally"). Or, possibly, the torment stems from their adult child's refusal to take responsibility for their actions.
