Your Child's World

Are you a mind reader? Do you know what goes on in your child's world? More than likely you make assumptions. In fact, you make assumptions about everything your child does, right? You make up motives for his actions and for his lack of action. And you are guessing.
Do you know you can ask your child what he is feeling and thinking? You can ask your child what he feels and thinks about things and people and events.
What if you actually knew what it is like to live in the world as your child?
Well, you cannot live exactly as your child does. However, you can get a good idea of what it is like for him. Do you think having such a connection may help to build your child's self esteem?
While you are at it--share how it is living in the world as you. Children often fail to realize parents are people.
