Day 19 – Summary of the Love Languages


•  We need to express love to our child(ren) in all five ways
•  some expressions of love/love languages will be more important to them than others
•  as our children grow older we need to try to recognize their primary and secondary ways of feeling loved
•  pay particular attention to using their principal love languages

Question:

2. Don’t try to arbitrate every fight

  • give them space to work out their own disagreements
  • remain impartial- don’t always blame the older child or jump to conclusions
  • intervene if they are hurting each other
  • don’t allow unkind words or bullying
  • think ahead for regular issues that cause disputes: take turns when possible

What are the main causes of arguments between your children?  Or between your only child and his/her friends?
