What are our kids doing when they ask for something? They are communicating with you.
Most common types of communication
asking for things
solving problems
sharing events and time
It is habit forming to spend time and that is a byproduct of the relationship.
What happens when one or the other stops communicating? How painful does it feel to break that communication?
Kids have to grow up and fly on their own.
There is also pain in death of a parent.
Communication is a way of sharing burdens. Burdens are only lighter when we share them with another who can and is willing to help.
Stop sharing your problems with people who can’t
What is prayer? Communication with God
