Nearly every parent I talk to these days "mourns" the times when they felt connected to their young child. Let's face it, the past 3 years have been rough on everyone, and especially for some of you parents whose kids grew up from kid to teen! What happened to my chatty kiddo? All I get is "good" and "ok" at best, and often "you don't get me" and "no."
In this video I give you 3 essential tips that are guaranteed to turn your distant relationship around, so listen to the end.
Every human wants to be seen and heard. That is how we KNOW that we are loved. It is not rocket science and we can go deep into psychology and neuroscience to get a deeper understanding as to why this is the case, but ultimately it is a safety mechanism of our brain and body. It allows us to know that we belong, that we are not alone, and that we are safe. Children are the same as adults -they are also human, remember! In fact, they need even more reassurance in love and support than adults because they don't have any preconceived assumptions yet that get them through their day.
