Just finished this book, and I truly recommend it to ANYONE, whether you have kids, work with kids, know kids, have ever been a kid. It has cartoons! But more than that, it has ideas that really communicate to the core of what makes real, authentic communication possible between adults and kids. . It's a language that we can learn, where we show respect to kids, let them solve problems on their own, become autonomous and be able to express the negative feelings that are part of all of our lives. I LOVE this book and the people who wrote it. Honestly, I think it works for adults, too #howtotalksokidswilllisten #ithacakids #lovethisbook https://www.instagram.com/p/B3nAMFVATCo/?igshid=15d20r8ez86q9
