    Remember:

    Thank your children


    for coming to speak
    to you

    How to communicate
    with your children

    Positive and good


    communication can improve
    understanding between you and
    your children. It can help you
    guide your children and stop
    them from making the same
    mistakes as you.
    Always make sure that you have
    enough time to talk with your
    children, and that you are open
    and honest.

    How can you really listen to your children?


    Look at your children when talking with them
    Give your children time to speak without disturbing them
    Let your children know you were listening
    Do not get angry or upset if your children want to talk to you
    about sex, relationships, alcohol or drugs

    Parent-Child Communication Tool 9


    How can you be consistent
    in what you say with your
    mouth and do with your
    body?
    Smile when you are
    saying encouraging
    words
    Look worried, but
    not angry, when your
    children tell you of a
    challenge or expresses
    sadness

    Make sure you understand


    what your children are
    asking. Think about why
    the question is being asked,
    but do not ask why they are
    asking. You can ask questions
    that will help you understand
    what your children want to
    know. Try asking:

    In what way?
    Then what happened?
    Who else was there?
    Where did it happen?
    How did you feel?
    What did others say or do?
