When Kids Ask Tough Questions
Manage episode 436624703 series 2430667
We've all been there: our kid asks us what heaven is like, and whether dogs can go there too. Or why some people are homeless. Or why that person over there doesn't look like other people.
Sometimes we rush to smooth things over, or chastise them for what is probably honest curiosity.
Other times we overexplain, answering with a confusing lecture when what they really wanted was reassurance.
In this episode, we talk about how to find the best balance.
