The "me first" attitude is all around us in culture, and our teens are affected by it perhaps more than any other group. In order to combat teen selfishness, parents should first reflect on how they can model godly selflessness better to their teens — because after all, we all struggle with this in one way or another! In today's show, Mark Gregston and Wayne Shepherd talk about how parents accidentally feed their teen's selfishness and share how to break that cycle. Tune in now!
