820: Ideas on How to Keep Your Kids Talking To You

Published: Nov. 6, 2023, 8 a.m.

I am not a parenting expert and I don\u2019t always make the right parenting choices.\xa0I\u2019m definitely not sure we get it right with screen time, candy, or bedtime at our house\u2026 But the most important thing to me as my child enters his tween era is that he trusts me and believes he can talk to me when things are hard.\xa0There are a few things that I have done really consciously and consistently over the years that are paying off as V gets older.\xa0There are also some new things that I\u2019m trying that have been effective.\xa0I wanted to share them with you as we all venture through Shameless Motherhood.\xa0You are not alone in this journey.\xa0We are in it together.\xa0As Glennon says, we belong to each other.\nWhen our children struggle, it\u2019s easy to immediately assume blame, become consumed with doubt, and feel really stuck in dysfunctional patterns.\xa0Sharing our fumbles and our wins can not only help us process but also help us feel less alone on this journey which can feel incredibly isolating and confusing at times.\nI hope this episode gives you a new tool or two while also giving you hope.
