Distraught dad of tweens

Question

Please help - i am the father of a 12 year old girl and a 10 year old boy. They are both spoilt brats who only care about their enjoyment.

1)They are very rude and dont listen.
2)They dont help with chores unless forced and they complain.
3)They dont appreciate me or my wife or anything we do them.

Tonight I told them "enough is enough", i took away their computer time until they change and have said from now on they will only be given what they "need".

They are both now very angry and said they will no longer even try to be good and our son said he wishes he lived with another family.

I feel heartbroken and wonder is it to late to change them?

I can see these years of spoiling them has turned them into monsters. Just dont know what to do please help.

I have just ordered the book "well behaved child".

Thanks in advance, please reply asap im in so much anxiety over this.
