My daughter always listen with all ears when we share our day with her before sleep. She felt being respected. In return, she shares her day too and we get to know what happened to her at pre-school and at nanny's place. - Janice Thu, 30 Aug 2007 11:00:50 +0100 http://www.parentwonder.com/content/view/351/54/#pc_203 I think when we share our feelings with children, it boosts their egos, because adults don't usually do that. It's like saying, "you matter enough to me, and I respect you enough, to tell you what I think about something." I mean, don't we adults feel the same way when one of our superiors (a boss, for instance) chats with us on an even level, instead of talking down to us? At least once a day, we should all make our kids feel, "hey, we're in this together!" Brilliant post--your kids are lucky to have you! - mom2fur Wed, 29 Aug 2007 20:04:16 +0100 http://www.parentwonder.com/content/view/351/54/#pc_202 This sounds like something my daughter would respond to as well. Thanks! - Nikki Wed, 29 Aug 2007 12:14:30 +0100
