Teach Belonging To Your Children - 221

CONNIE ALBERS
About this episode

 

In today's culture, teaching children they belong within the family unit is desperately needed. Feeling needed is a core need we all experience, but it's especially important to cultivate this core need within our family.

This week, I focus on understanding and meeting one of our children's fundamental core need.

Home is where our kids learn belonging, worth, and value.
