Do you know when someone is really listening to you? They usually make eye contact, won’t interrupt or change the subject, and you can sense they are empathizing with what you are saying. How well do we listen to our kids? We should offer them the same consideration we try to show to the adults in our lives. I can remember when my mom would repeat something I said, just to show me that she heard me. A child, no matter how young, will know when someone is paying attention and really listening to what they are saying. This kind of consideration shows them that they are valued and important, and will benefit your relationship with them as they grow older. It’s never too late, no matter what age your children are, to begin actively listening to them. Start today. Comment here.
