Ways to Strengthen a Parent-Child Relationship

What parents can do better is to build a strong and healthy bond with your child. Let's begin. 

Show Your Love
Treat every interactions as an opportunity to connect with your child by greeting them with warm expressions, giving eye contact when you talk and smile. 

Say “I love you” often
A simple "I love you" can have a major impact on your long-term relationship with your child. Even if your child is being difficult or naughty, forgive them and teach them what's right and end it with "I love you"

Set boundaries, rules, and consequences
Communication is the key where you talk to your children what you expect of them and help them to understand. When rules are broke, make sure to have consistent appropriate punishment.

Listen and empathize
Acknowledge that your child has feeling, show them you understand, and reassure them that you will be there to support with whatever they need. 

Play Together
Playing is so important to a child’s development. It is the tool through which children develop language skills, express emotions, foster creativity, and learn about social skills. Additionally, it is a fun way for you to strengthen your relationship with your child.
