I M taking my child's small problem as seriously as I take my large ones.

Wisdom

The lost toy is his whole world today. Wave it off as nothing and you teach him not to bring you the big things later. A child who is heard about the small stuff becomes a teenager who still talks to you.

Carry It

Get down to a child's eye level today and listen to something small like it is the most important report of your day.

Ask Yourself

Have you taught your child that their problems are safe with you, or too small to mention?
