Ways To Communicate Positively With
 Children
 *Start communicating effectively while
 children are young.Furthermore, parents who provide them
 children with plenty of love,
 understanding and acceptance are helping
 to create a climate for open
 communication.Before parents and
 their children can communicate, both
 must feel comfortable enough to do so.
 While their children are very young,
 parents should begin setting the stage
 for open, effective communication.Sometimes it's easier for parents to feel
 acceptance for their children than it is
 to actually show it.  Parents must
 and demonstrate to their children that they
 love and accept them.Parents can do
 this in both verbal and nonverbal ways.Verbally parents can let their children
 know they accept them through what
 they say.For
 example, when a child picks up his toys
 after he or she is finished with them,
 parents can let him or her know that they
 appreciate it by saying something like, "I
 appreciate it when you pick up yours
 toys without being told." When
 talking with their children, parents
 should be careful of what they say
 and how they say it.  Everything
 parents say to their children send a
 message about how they feel about
 them. For example, if a parent says
 something like "Don't bother me now.
