Nurturing relationships (a guide for Parents)

The parent-child relationship is a precious bond.  As parents, we experience emotions like sadness, anger, excitement and fear. It is important to acknowledge our feelings to better understand those of our child. Talking about emotions with your child is the foundation to a strong connection with your child.  Instead of listing the range of caregiver roles, we use the word “parent” to make the booklets easier to read.
