Jen Shoemaker Davidson: Keep Talking, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Parenting doesn't come with a manual. But fellow mom Jen Shoemaker Davidson is here to offer straight talk and practical strategies for establishing loving and trusting communication to last a lifetime. When her own kids entered their teenage years, Jen realized she had important topics she wanted to share with them-but getting them to open up and talk to her would take her full commitment to showing up, even when it was hard. What started as simple "life lesson lunches"-intentional times to sit down and focus on important conversations-became a tried-and-true philosophy for fostering connection throughout their teenage years. In Keep Talking, Davidson has created a trusted companion for parents navigating the meaningful-and often messy and embarrassing-conversations essential for maintaining open communication with your kids. Through her practical tips and tools, here's just a glimpse of what you'll learn: Start and end a conversation Be an active and thoughtful listener Handle silence when that's their answer Be less judgmental and anxious Instill confidence and a growth mindset Avoid pushing perfection Master the art of an apology

With sample conversations to help you get started, Keep Talking offers parents open and honest guidance without judgment, delivered with laughter and love.
