While it might sound like tired advice, it’s a skill worth learning that will help us do better in all our relationships. As a child grows up, the way you communicate with them will need to change to reflect the new boundaries in your relationship created by their increasing independence. Discovering these new and different approaches to communicating effectively with one another will be a learning experience for you both.
