Communication is one of the hardest areas that a parent can encounter when dealing with their children. Children first learn how to communicate not with their words but with their actions. When they are first born it’s with their crying as they get older it’s with their actions, then eventually with their mouths and soon their lack of words. The reason I bring this up is that I got a scripture Proverbs 22.6, says START a child in the way they should go and even when they are old they will not turn from it.
I hear parents speak about how they cannot communicate with their children; the fact is most parents don’t start communicating with their children until they start getting into trouble, and a parent form of communication is yelling. The last time I checked communicating take one to listen and one to speak and vice versa. I hear so many parents talking to their children but many don’t take the time to listen.
If you ever pay attention to mothers and their children you always see a mother talking to their children, but don’t realize they are brushing them off at the same time. Then the wonder as they get older why their children brush them off.

We cannot let our emotions control what we want for our children.
Hello beautiful mothers, for years I was hurt because I was unable to keep my family together. Not only was I upset with myself but then I started to over compensate with my child. I almost felt like I was the one to blame so I gave everything to him to make up for that hurt that I was feeling. Children need structure and discipline; don’t let emotions make you feel guilty for the decision you had to make. Walking away sometimes is the best thing not only for you but also for your children. A negative environment is not only unhealthy for your children, but also for yourself. A stressful relationship can not only hurt our children in the long run, but could have them emotionally scared in the future. My motto has always been what ever is in the best interest of the children. Staying in an abusive relationship is far worse than leaving. Sometimes we have to cut our losses in order for us to gain our future.~ You are empowered!
