Five Ways That Non -Verbal Communication Impacts Your Teen

Dear Parents,

·         Be mindful of  your  tone of voice-

 

You've heard the saying, it's not what you say, it's how you say it.  Very true.  Be mindful of your tone.  You can best do this by noticing the reaction that you are getting from what you are saying.

Did your teen respond defensively?  Check your tone, perhaps there was some judgement in it that you didn't intend.  Do you have a million things in your mind?  Sometimes your frantic state gives others the impression that you are in a rush, or that you don't have time for them. 

 If you are not sure, ask your teen how they are feeling, and then ask them what made them feel that way.

To Your Family,
