How Can You Have a Meaningful Conversation with Your Child? | Episode 505

Are your attempts at deep conversation met with eye-rolls or silence? Dr. Roger Smith shares the secret to breaking through: meaningful connection rarely happens through "big talks" or eye-to-eye interrogations. Instead, he introduces the Four Rights—the right time, situation, length, and intention. Learn why "shoulder-to-shoulder" activities like fishing or driving are the best places for kids to open up, and why a 30-second affirmation can be more powerful than a 30-minute lecture. Discover how to move from manipulation to genuine giving by focusing on what you like about your child’s character rather than just their appearance or grades.
