Ten Things To Say To Your Children Today!<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

1. I Love You, No Matter What.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Let your children know you love them unconditionally.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Emphasize that they do not always need to be good,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

successful, or smart for you to love them.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Love their successes and failures.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

2. I Respect You.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Children deserve respect too!<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

You will teach your children a lot about respecting<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

other people’s values and boundaries,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

when you show them respect.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

3. I Support Your Decision.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Be supportive in their decisions,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

as long as it is not something that<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

will cause them harm. There are many<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

adults living with resentment and regret<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

because their parents did not support<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

their dreams and goals.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

4. I Am Listening.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Listen without judgment or criticism.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Listen with out self-referencing.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Listen with the intent to just listen.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

You don’t need to understand, relate<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

or like what they are saying. Just listen.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

5. You Brighten My Day!<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Let your child know how much joy<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

they bring into your life. Show them<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

that they are a blessing.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

6. I’m So Glad You’re My Child.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Tell them what unique qualities you admire.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Encourage them to share their skills<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

and talents with you.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

7. Tell Me More.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Be inquisitive in a good way.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Show enthusiasm when they are speaking.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Use your tone and body language to show you<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

are paying attention. Be curious about what<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

they are saying, but don’t interrupt.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

8. I Want To Understand.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Let your child know when you do not understand<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

what they are going through.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Ask them to share, but don’t push.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Let them come to you on their own free will.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

9. Thank You.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Show gratitude for the little things,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

even if it is their responsibility.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Thank them when they do something<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

without you asking.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

10. Let Me Help You.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If your child needs help, be there.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Be there with your love and spirit.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
