About this product
Product Information
Is Your Home Out of Order? Do your kids expect clean folded clothes to magically appear in their drawers? Do they roll their eyes when you suggest they clean the bathroom? By racing in to make their lives easy, have you unintentionally reinforced your children's belief that the world revolves around them? Dismayed at the attitude of entitlement that had crept into her home, Kay Wyma got some attitude of her own. Cleaning House is her account of a year-long campaign to introduce her five kids to basic life skills and the ways meaningful work can increase earned self-confidence and concern for others. With irresistible humor and refreshing insights, Kay candidly details the ups and downs of equipping her kids for such tasks as making beds, refinishing a deck chair, and working together. The changes that take place in her household will inspire you to launch your own campaign to dislodge your kids from the center of their universe. "If you want your children to be more responsible, more self-assured, and more empathetic, Cleaning House is for you." --Jim Daly, president of Focus on the Family

Praise for Cleaning House "At last! Enlightenment about entitlement in our kids-and not just what it is, but also what to do about it." -Elisa Morgan, author of She Did What She Could, president emerita of MOPS International, and publisher of FullFill "Parents, take note: Kay Wills Wyma's experiment could change your life, especially if your kids suffer from 'me first!' syndrome. If you want your children to be more responsible, more self-assured, and more empathetic, Cleaning House is for you." -Jim Daly, president of Focus on the Family " Cleaning House is both a beautifully told story and a practical guide to parenting in today's complex world." -Michael Gurian, best-selling author of The Wonder of Boys and The Wonder of Girls " Cleaning House will be one of the most influential parenting books of our generation. When it comes to directing parents how to raise fabulous kids, Kay Wills Wyma nails it." -Meg Meeker, MD, author of the national bestseller Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters " Cleaning House offers the perfect solution for parents who want to free their children from the entitlement trap. Hilarious stories, amazing creativity, and a huge dose of grace make this book difficult to put down! Kay Wills Wyma paves the way and offers tools to help our families experience the satisfaction and confidence that comes through meaningful work." -Sandra Stanley, North Point Ministries " Cleaning House delivers practical advice, helpful encouragement, and laugh-out-loud moments for weary parents who want to lovingly change the hearts and future of their overly indulged children." -Chuck Bentley, CEO of Crown Financial Ministries and author of The Root of Riches "For parents who are weary of the Me generation, [ Cleaning House ] provides a practical roadmap…to bring your children from entitlement to empowerment. From the day-to-day aspects of training in practical-life skills to issues of the heart such as service with a smile and hospitality, Kay writes with transparency, humor, and wisdom. As a parent, grandparent, and school principal, I believe this book will become a favorite of parents and one they will reference frequently." -Jody Capehart, co-author of Bonding with Your Teens Through Boundaries "In an age of youth entitlement, this is a must-read for moms who desire to raise godly kids with servant hearts! Kay Wills Wyma understands and communicates on this vital issue like no one on earth!" -Joe White, president of Kanakuk Kamps "In Cleaning House , Kay Wills Wyma has crafted a book that hits home on many levels. It's a case study for any parent who wants to change the entitlement culture among their kids. But at a deeper level, it hits each of us who long to live our daily lives in a way that pleases God." -Ronald L. Harris, senior vice president of the National Religious Broadcasters "Reading this book will inspire hope, despair, and then more hope: hope that we can get our kids to do more chores, then despair that no, maybe only Kay can do it (she had a book contract!), then hope again-because Kay shows us, step by baby step, how to make it happen, in the real world, with real kids." -Lenore Skenazy, author of the book and blog Free-Range Kids "With unique creativity and wry humor, this sensible, determined mom herds her five distinctly different offspring into an acute lifestyle chan≥ namely, learning to master the inevitable demands of life.… With 'a spoonful of sugar,' Cleaning House cools the dangerous 'me first' fever weakening our American culture." -Dr. Howard G. Hendricks, distinguished professor emeritus of leadership and Christian education, Dallas Theological Seminary, and Jeanne Hendricks, speaker and author of A Mother's Legacy
