Having strong relationships with your kids is the best thing you can do for their mental health. One way to build that relationship is through having conversations with your kids. Talking with children, not at them, builds their empathy, problem-solving, confidence, joy, creativity, and social skills. This week Diana Hill and Rebecca Rolland explore 8 types of conversations parents and caregivers can have with kids to help them grow into good humans who will go out into the world to do good things.
