  But psychologist Tony Levitas says that when parents constantly cave in, kids learn a damaging lesson.
  
  "In the big picture of things, it creates a society of budding narcissists who think they're entitled to whatever they want," he says.
  
  Experts recommend that parents make a clear rule , no means no. After that, if a kid keeps asking, they should enforce the consequences , loss of a privilege or a timeout.
  
  "I would have the parent sit down with the child and say, "Look, I know we've been doing it this way for a while, but I don't think that's a good thing for you, and this is what we're gonna do now , and we need you to respect what we say, and if you don't, this is what's gonna happen,'" Levitas says.
  
  Sarah says she knows she has to change her ways.
  
  "It's not a very good habit to have when you're getting older because you keep on asking the same question , people will be like ,No, I already said that,'" she says.

  During a TalkBack Live segment that aired on 6 January 2000, Tony Levitas, Psychologist, offered commentary about the repatriation controversy of the Elián González case.His words are indeed well advised, and sentiments that ascend above the transactions of the marketplace in the practice of both United States and international law, and particularly, when the "T-shirt and the banner" is a child.His words too are indeed well advised for all those individuals who assert that they speak for Elián, and they are words that these individuals need to keep in mind in their line of sight as they lead Elián through the maze of the plurality of voices in our global family of cultures vying to speak for Elián's right to reality.
  
  I think the first thing we need to keep in mind is that this child has sustained tremendous loss to begin with.He's lost his mother forever.He's likely dealing with really horrific grief, and there's a whole range of emotions that he's likely to be experiencing, from shock and disbelief to anger, sadness and questioning why.He's also been torn apart from his father and his homeland.So he's really dealing with quite an adjustment.I'm not sure if people are keeping those factors in mind.I think it would be hard for any child in this case, who's been lavished with gifts and trips to Disneyworld and all sorts of perks, if you will, to stay here.So he's probably in a state of denial right now about what he's dealing with.But this will hit him at some point, whether it's today or tomorrow or next year.But he will have to deal with this.
