“Unlocking Peace: 8 Surprising Strategies to Reclaim Respect from an Entitled Adult Child”
7) Don’t enable their behavior
As a parent, it’s natural to want to help your child. But sometimes, our well-intentioned help can turn into enabling, particularly when dealing with an entitled adult child.
Enabling is when we remove the natural consequences of someone’s behavior. It could be:
- Constantly loaning them money
- Cleaning up their messes
- Shielding them from negative feedback
While it may seem like you’re helping in the short term, enabling can reinforce their entitlement and disrespect in the long run.
