Great topic!! I found this article very informative with regard to this topic: https://www.mentalhelp.net/blogs/7-tips-for-effective-communication-with-your-school-aged-child/ Communicating with children may seemed like a very minor thing, but it is actually very important. Very often, it is easy to not to "pay attention" to what the child is saying (kind of like hearing, but not registering). For example, a child may be giving a narration of what happened in school, and it is very likely that a parent may not be really processing what is being said. Hence, it is important to remind one to pay attention to what the child is saying. Giving your child your full attention will help build trust and security, and help led the path for effective communication with the child. This will also allow the parent to pick up any emotional cues from the child and address any underlying issue that a child may be facing. Hope you find the article useful too! :)
