When I think of the “entitled attitude”, I can’t help but think of this proverb. I have a relative that has made their entire life’s mission to do this very thing. I think, “how can they continue to do this, it’s so wrong”. To take advantage of your parents, is so wrong, especially when they are older and more vulnerable. But then I realize, these entitlement thinkers are miserable, having no hope, and will suffer tremendously before it’s all over. It’s like they live in the prison of their own mind. There’s nothing worse than that; being trapped in the confinements of your own head. Having no hope or motivation is just that, no life.
24 Anyone who steals from his father and mother and says, “What’s wrong with that?” is no better than a murderer.
