Excellant. I love this. We have such a huge responsibility to teach our children. Touches my heart that you take the time to break down words into meaning

  Thanks so much. I can see the difference in them when I explain the details. They feel so much more confident and WAY less defiant. They are better equipped with understanding why…not just no.

    I completely agree. Why not TEACH them what we are trying to say. I never told my daughter” Go tell your friend you are sorry” with out talking it completely through. Was she sorry? Did she feel remorse? Did it feel right to do? How did the entire situation unfold? We are talkers and still at 21 we talk through things and I’ve heard her talk to her friends and explain things in such a heart felt beautiful way. Her friends feel understood and heard because she always felt heard.

    I’m so thankful you shared. I pray that my daughter and I have the same relationship when she is that age. My daughter has such an awesome heart for the Lord, she is going to do really great things. Communication is such a powerful tool that can equip us to be champions!
