Praise and Bless Them
There are tremendous benefits in praising and blessing our children.
Praise creates an atmosphere of love, joy, and acceptance. Children desire the
praise of their parents, and they naturally want to please them and gain their
acceptance.
Listen to Gain Understanding
We can learn to understand our children by listening to them. It is
important that we give undivided attention to them when they talk to us. We
want our children to be able to share their hearts without feeling that we will
condemn them. Effective parenting requires good listening skills, which will
produce greater understanding.
Have Fun Together!
See you tomorrow!
