3 things every kid needs to hear from the adults who love them the most

SALT LAKE CITY — Being a parent automatically makes you the adult, the grown-up in the room. But are you emotionally mature?

Therapist Eli Harwood shared three simple phrases that can change the way your child trusts you, talks to you and connects with you. She said every kid needs to hear these things from the adults who love them the most.

"I am not always going to get it right, but it is always your right to tell me when I'm getting it wrong."

"I will always work to hear you." Love that you're framing listening as a skill...

"My approval is not your goal."
