Day 19 – Summary of the Love Languages

Parenting Children Ages 0-10


•  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:
Which expressions of love do you think make the most difference to your children? Which of the five do you find most difficult to give? What would help you show love in this way?

Home is a place where teenagers learn how to build healthy relationships.

  • Teenagers learn to relate through observing adult relationships
  • If parenting together, invest in your relationship (take our marriage course!)
  • If parenting on your own, build the best relationship you can with the other parent, when possible
  • Nurture other adult friendships
  • Mealtimes together – teenagers learn to talk, listen, debate issues, and respect others’ views
  • Regular family time – having fun together ias a family helps build relationships between parents and children and between siblings (consider having a weekly “family night”)

How can you intentionally model healthy relationships with others in your life, for your teenager to learn from?
