- help them express their feelings in healthy ways
- listen to affirm their strengths
- model how to navigate conflict with grace
- listen to God, knowing that he “bends down to listen” to us (Psalm 116:2 NLT)
Whether your son or daughter is in preschool, grade school, or high school, intentional listening will help them feel heard, valued, and empowered to find their unique voice. The practices you put into place now will set a foundation for strong relationships into adulthood.
