Chaos, stress, & uncertainty provide opportunities for teaching moments. For anyone trying to raise children this year is especially abundant with those opportunities. Lucky you, parents.
\nFear not! The Windy City Nanny, Florence Ann Romano, can help us figure out how to talk to our kids about absolutely anything. A professional nanny, childcare advocate, & author, she\u2019s speaking from over fifteen years of experience.
\nThe first step is getting our kids to just open up. They should never feel like they can\u2019t come to you. But that doesn\u2019t mean you must have all the answers. It truly does take a village to raise a child, so feel free to ask for help from others in your tribe.
\nFor those especially polarizing topics of conversation, Florence Ann suggests teaching children to research & be objective. Acknowledge that education is power & sometimes we just have to agree to disagree. Children do have the capacity to understand kindness, tolerance, & the value of keeping an open mind & heart.
\nA parent is their children\u2019s first & lifelong teacher. So make this shift to a communication comfort zone with them!
