Help

We both have insecurities and trust issues due to past relationships... So, there's the back and forth accusations, yelling, name calling, etc. We are both extremely jealous and have no communication skills. We love each other but sometimes Love isn't enough to make someone understand that you aren't going to hurt them. How can we help each other overcome these issues?

I took my son's Ipad away because I'm at my wit's end with him.

He is so addicted and doesn’t want to do anything else. Can anyone tell me whether I did the right thing or am I being too harsh?

As a parent, you know the importance of helping your child to learn a robust vocabulary from a young age—knowing more words and having the ability to use these words effectively will lead to improved communication skills and more ample opportunities for success down the road.

Here, we’d like to review a few practical tips to ensure that your child is expanding their vocabulary at an appropriate rate, as well as how to communicate sufficiently with this new vocabulary.

Introduce your child to an English dictionary and thesaurus.

Equally useful for both native and non-native English speakers, a dictionary and thesaurus set is an essential tool for any parent who is helping their child to improve their vocabulary. Make sure that your child has access to these books, and teach them how to use each reference appropriately.

Encourage your child to maintain a daily journal.

The content of this journal isn’t important—let your child know that they can write about their day’s experiences, a dream vacation, or any story that pops into their head. What matters most is that they are learning to integrate vocabulary words into new sentences and contexts. Let them know that this can be fun, and use this activity to encourage creativity!

Vary the way you use words in sentences.

Challenge your child to vary the way that they communicate common phrases, and make sure that they are using new vocabulary words properly within full sentences. Knowing only the definition of new vocabulary words means little if they are unable to also use the word appropriately within a sentence!

Make reading a habit.

If you’re wondering how to expand your vocabulary and your child’s, make it a habit to read together. By reading widely and investigating unfamiliar words, you can organically introduce your child to new vocabulary words.
