Focus on Better Behavior

According to this article parents spend way too much time giving their kids all of their attention. Parents feel obligated in giving them their attention constantly. The problem with this is that then children are wanting attention all the time or expect that they will get it whenever they want it. The parents suffer because they get no time for themselves. Children need to learn how to entertain themselves and be able to take care of themselves. Not to say that parents need to ignore their children and not be there for them. They can step back a little bit and let their children handle themselves for a while.
