They rarely say “thank you”
A textbook trait of an entitled child is the refusal or inability to say thank you. They believe that all things are owed to them, which means that there is no need to demonstrate gratitude for them. Anytime I witnessed this trait in my work as a teacher or even with children in my own family, it was because the parent failed to teach the child to show appreciation for gestures made by others. Basic manners are taught and learned at home. Moving through life with this type of attitude will create problems for the child in their social and professional interactions because ungratefulness is very off-putting.
