People Share Questionable Parenting Tactics That Still Affect Them to This Day

Listening to our kids is just as important as talking to them. We all get annoyed when people don’t listen to us, so why would we put our children through that? If we want to have a strong and genuine relationship with them, we need to understand they also want to be seen, heard, and taken seriously.

It’s sad to see this person’s parents’ inability to show them respect and attention had such severe consequences. Not feeling like others care about what you have to say and having a difficult time standing up for yourself is not easy. Listening to our kids is probably the greatest gift we can give them.
