Summary
We all want to know how to build deeper communication with our children. We all want them to openly share things with us so we can know what's going on in their lives, and we want them to come to us when something bothers them. Yet this doesn't always happen. Our children, especially when they are in their teenage years, tend to block us and even separate us from what is happening to them. And that can hurt and upset us very much. We feel that we're bad parents, that we're not supporting them enough... and unfortunately, if we're not careful, this can escalate and become a painful relationship. But there are ways to avoid this. And in this episode, I spoke to Counsellor-Psychologist Stella Redman about one aspect of inter-personal communication that can make all the difference: Validation. What validation is, and why it is the key to excellent communication, is all explained in the episode. Happy listening!
