Children sense that they belong by the way their parents talk to - TopicsExpress

Children sense that they belong by the way their parents talk to them and act toward them. Show and tell your child that you love and care for him or her. Children learn about how well they are doing by how their parents react to their behavior. Offer praise at least twice as often as you criticize (and try for four times as often). Children learn how to work with others by learning how to cooperate within a family. Give your child some age-appropriate household responsibilities.
