For a healthy relationship between parents and children, you should know some secrets.
In this article, we will tell you what is important to know in order to strengthen the parent-child relationship.
How to strengthen your emotional connection with your child
Be a reliable support for your child. Support them when they need it, do not devalue their feelings and emotions.
Be attentive to your child. You have to notice when something is wrong.
At the same time, the child should be able to share with you what happened.
Be sensitive to your child. Respect their opinions, personal boundaries and aspirations.
See your child as a person who is just as worthy of respect and serious consideration as any adult.
Be emotionally open. Openly express any emotions and feelings in the family.
Allow your child to be angry, rebel and offended.
Don't take your child's behavior personally. Teenagers can be difficult sometimes, but it's absolutely not your fault.
Don't blame yourself for having a hard time communicating with your child. This is normal for this age.
Show your child your expectations for behavior. If the child is old enough, indicate what household chores you can help with.
Try to instill discipline and obedience from an early age.
Being an emotionally available parent means being present and attuned to your child's emotional needs.
This involves active listening, showing empathy and understanding, and responding to emotions.
This requires you to be patient, compassionate and flexible.
