Not Now, But Definitely Later

NOT NOW!

How many of us have shooed our children away with just those words?

‘Just Jackie’, parenting expert and author, Jackie Dryden, has devoted herself to developing great communication skills for parents to use with their kids.


Great Tip!

She has a great tip for those times when you’re just too busy to pay attention to whatever it is your child wants to tell you. We all know that even the most conscientious parents have times when they can’t stop whatever they’re doing to listen to what their kids have to say.

That’s when Dryden uses her ‘NOT NOW’ card.

When you’re just too busy to listen to your child, hold up the card. On the back of the card, where you can see it, it says: Take a Breath; Think of something pleasant; Let your child know you’ll get back to them; You have one hour to get back to them and listen to what they need to tell you.

And when you do get back to them, remember to really listen!

Jackie Dryden is a child advocate and the author of “Just Me: What Your Child Wants You to Know About Parenting
