In this episode of the Playful Connection Podcast, Eddie Shin will explore four simple and practical tips of how to apply “I” statements in your home and how they can help strengthen your connection with the children and teens in your life.

1. Expressing Feelings
2. Requesting Behavior Change
3. Expressing Needs
4. Setting Boundaries

Implementing these four tips—expressing feelings, requesting a behavior change, expressing needs, and setting boundaries—helps build and strengthen relationships with children and teens by fostering open, respectful, and empathetic communication. This approach encourages mutual understanding, reduces conflicts, and promotes a supportive environment where everyone feels valued and heard, ultimately enhancing trust and connection within the relationship.
