- When your children come home from school: "It's lovely to see you!" Or, "Welcome home!" Or even a cheery, "Hiya!" And then carry on with whatever it was you were doing. Leave it at that.
- When they want to talk about what they've been doing: Try limiting your side of the conversation to: "Oh." "Really?" "I see..." "Hmm."
- When feelings, emotions, and attitude are revealed: A little empathy can go a long way. If our children look sad, it can be too easy to say, "Why the long face?" Or, even, "What's wrong?" Much more can be accomplished with, "You look sad. It must have been a hard day."
- When they feel they would like to explain - it might include some trouble they got into: "Oh, that must have been difficult for you," will work wonders. "What did you do?" Will not.
