Children often do or say things that catch parents off guard. Taking a moment before responding calmly goes a long way toward creating a space where children feel safe to share their thoughts, wishes, and worries, no matter how small or big.

When children know they can talk about anything without fear of being judged, it strengthens trust and emotional security. There is no better way to build a foundation for healthy parent-child communication.

Thank you, Estefani, for modeling how parents can respond to children calmly, even when parents might be feeling upset or surprised by a child’s unexpected behavior.
