Are You Raising Kids… or Roommates? The Truth About Entitlement, Responsibility, and Leadership at Home

  1. Are You Raising Kids… or Roommates? The Truth About Entitlement, Responsibility, and Leadership at Home Ed Franklin 27:27

Too many parents today aren’t raising future adults — they’re raising roommates. Kids who expect everything, contribute nothing, and grow up without the skills, discipline, or resilience they need to stand on their own.

In this episode of Raising 10, Ed Franklin breaks down the hard truth: entitlement isn’t a kid problem — it’s a leadership problem in the home.

Ed shares the lessons he learned raising ten children, the standards that shapedhis Family culture, and the mistakes he sees modern parents making every day.From chores to accountability to emotional resilience, this episode exposes the gap between what parents say they want and what they’re actually teaching.

If you want to raise leaders — not dependents — this conversation will challenge you, sharpen you, and change the way you show up at home.

I am an almost 61-year-old Sales, Sales Manager, and Leader in my community in San Diego, CA. I started my podcast to help younger people navigate life since I have had hurdles like everyone else, but I tend to get a large variety of ages listening, even boomers! I have 8 children and soon to have a total of 19 grandchildren. Like many boomers I have been through the ringer when it comes to life and have many life experiences that could benefit anyone at any age. I choose to be a positive person, although it can be tough with our country's leadership over the last 20 years.
