Don't panic! The first step to deeply connecting with our children is being able to communicate, understand their emotional state, and respond to their questions. But what do we do when a difficult question arises? Sometimes we don't know what to say, so we change the subject or give a quick answer – and hope the child forgets their question. Dr. Robyn Silverman, a child development specialist and a mom herself, offers strategies to prepare us for life's most demanding conversations. Our children receive age-appropriate information directly from us, their trusted source, rather than from peers, the media, or the internet. We will learn how to provide calm, well-thought-out answers to tough questions on topics like sex, body image, gender, death, divorce, money, and much more! When you can't find the right words, this book will be your guide to talking to your children about anything, as they grow from toddlers to teenagers…
