How do you talk to your children?

Sat Naam

 

These statistics make you realise why we have so many issues between parents and kids rebelling.  When we do naam simran and follow our guru's wisdom in our life all of our relationships become loving.  However under maya the following applies:

 

 

The average child receives 432 negative comments per day versus 32 positive ones.

The average child in America receives only 12.5 minutes per day in communications with their parents/caretakers.

 

Of that time 8.5 minutes are spent correcting, criticizing or arguing, leaving a whopping 4 minutes per day for the instruction of values, morals, ethics, attitude and self esteem.

 

You were once this child.

 

You also lived a life of abuse, so where do you stand?
