Parents: This information was published on 5/22/08. Communication tips: Pay attention - don't interrupt. Don't prepare what you will say while your child is speaking. Reserve judgment until your child has finished and has asked you for a response. Your child's intellectural development doesn't hang on a single act but on an attitude that encourages enthusiasm for learning and new ideas. Each time a child succeeds on his own terms, he's satisfied with himself. He begins to feel that the world is at his finger tips.MY WORD: The positive time and energy spent with your children in their early years will be returned to you in a positive, self-confident child.
