As with all other relationships, communication is a key component and it reguires that we enter our child's world; their thoughts, perceptions and language. This helps us to understand them better and to get through to them.
Communicating our love to our children is so important. In their world, attention is king. We have to take time to stop - really listen to them while focusing our attention on them. Adult life is very busy, but there has to be at least one time in the day where this takes place. The moments you are looking directly into your child's eyes and you are responding to them, it is a time of bliss for them. It is good to listen and then ask them relative questions; this shows them you were listening. You can ask them how they feel about things; which says to them that their feelings are important to you.
There are many occasions when we want to communicate with our children, but it is so challenging. Especially when we are talking to toddlers. We often have to enter their world, in order to understand what they are saying. For instance, what are the tv shows they are watching? What books are they reading? What are they doing in school? What are the nuances of the language they and their friends use, etc.? To know these answers opens the doors to their world and allows you to understand their conversation, and even join in. (Toddlers love for you to know the characters in their books and cartoons and to sing songs from school classes and their favorite shows.) There is a beautiful bonding when you join in. It also presents quality opportunities for you to teach and guide their thoughts and actions, which often serves to safeguard their lives.
I think we can all reflect back to times in our childhood when we read books, watched tv shows, and watched people in general and developed notions about life and how we were to conduct ourselves. Sometimes the notions were not so productive. I can remember several times my parents corrected notions for me and replaced them with better ones; they protected me. I can remember the feeling of knowing, and the bond it created with me and my parents. There is just no limit to the many things you can share with your children and how this creates better relationships with your children.
So make sure to take time to watch, listen, respond to and engage with your children to strengthen your bond with them.
