Give the Gift of Validation

A parent and child hold hands.

Dear Parents,

You can validate your child's feelings without agreeing with the reasons for them. Everyone seeks acknowledgement and understanding. It is the easiest thing in the world to give:

You must feel super mad, disappointed, excited, frustrated, hurt, scared...

It is not always easy for our children to accept their own feelings or our acknowledgement of them.

Sometimes our children don't know what they feel. Your guess may be off or get rejected, but it's a start. Give it anyway.

Your Love Matters,

❤Ce
