Saying "I Love You" Often no Matter How Old Our Kid is

               Our relationship with our kid contributes a lot to his general health and well-being. A better bond between a mother and child usually means a happier, more secure, more independent, and more responsible kid. One way of strengthening bond to our child is by saying "I Love You" often, no matter how old he(she) is. We can tell to our kid what we love about them. A genuine appreciation build trust and self-esteem.

               It also helps to keep a unique and personal relationship with each of our child. For example: schedule a one-on-one bonding time with each of them. It could be a short talk or story time (me and my son like to have a story telling every night before going to bed) or special alone days doing something fun like cooking, malling or visiting the zoo. 

               This helps in making our kid know that he(she) has a special place in our heart that no one else can fill. And that is priceless as it is healthy.
