So how well do you know your kids? I don’t mean their likes or dislikes… I’m talking about how well you know what’s going on inside their head and their heart. No matter their personality, it’s so important to create a relationship that allows our kids to feel important and understood.But I’ll be the first to admit: That’s not always easy.Today on the podcast, I have a fun conversation to share with you with Becky Harling, a popular speaker and best-selling author of 11 books. We had such a fun time swapping some funny parenting stories, and Becky shares some practical wisdom about how she learned to love her kids without trying to control them, how parents can validate emotions without validating negative behavior, and what it looks like to parent from a place of humility.Above all else: Both Becky and I want you to know that it truly is possible to build a meaningful and lasting relationship with your kids. It’s not always easy, it requires intention (and patience and grace and so much more!), but it’s so possible. I hope this conversation equips you to take one step in the direction of helping your kids feel heard, understood, and valued. You’re not alone!Show Notes: www.jillsavage.org/how-to-listen-so-your-kids-will-talk-becky-harling-31/
