Successful Parenting

50. Talk Less, Smile More


Listen Later

The title of this episode is a quote from the hit Broadway show Hamilton. We agree with Burr when he suggests, "Talk Less, Smile More" to Hamilton. This strategy works for parents too!

 

Guest expert Dr. Melissa Katz joins us for an intriguing discussion about approaches parents can use to foster deeper and more meaningful connections with their children. Dr. Katz recognizes that observing and trying to understand the why behind a child's behavior may provide some insight into the child's emotional state and needs. Listeners

are reminded of the importance of active listening and its impact on open lines of communication. As the conversation unfolds, Jacqueline and Robin join Dr. Katz in discussing strategies and those responses that may hinder communication and even impact a child's confidence.
