Our children need our quality time and love. However, when our children get older, it becomes a rarity to get one-on-one time with them. They are either in another city or are very busy or have other priorities.
So, when you get a chance to have some one-on-one quality time with them, there are very excuses to miss them. If you miss that opportunity, it will take a long time to get it back.
Here are seven ways to keep in touch and positively impact our busy children (millennials)
1. Send a regular small note of expression of love and appreciation
2. Check regularly with a short message: Hope all well?
3. Take interest in their sports, work, hobbies, travel, friends. Encourage the sharing of photos.
4. Have a family group what’s Ap account where you can chat as a family
5. Plan at least one family trip a year. Ideally, two or three family trips even if low budget ones
6. Empower your children instead of micromanaging
7. Instead of giving advice, be a great role model!
