Summary

Do you sometimes feel like you’re speaking a foreign language at the breakfast table? Then it’s time to "speak kid"!

When you can communicate effectively with your children, you unlock the secret to a deeper connection. Talking to children is an art, and it requires a different mindset than the one you apply when you’re talking to adults. Yet, the things you’re about to discover about talking to kids will help you in your adult interactions too.

This one-of-a-kind parenting guide is the answer you’ve been looking for. Inside, you’ll discover:

  • The science of communication—and how this translates to your interactions with kids
  • Why the way you talk to children matters (and how you can level up your game)
  • How to identify your parenting goals and why doing so affects your communication
  • The essential habits you can easily adopt to form a stronger connection with your kids (and why this connection matters)
  • "Don’t forget Mom"—how to maintain good communication between parents even if you’re not together anymore
  • The secret to getting your kids to listen as well as the dog does when you have a bag of treats in your pocket
  • A comprehensive guide to navigating tough moments and the power of self-discipline
  • Why a "growth mindset" isn’t just for career success—and how you can instill it in your children naturally
  • What to do when you find yourself to be the bad guy (we all lose our cool sometimes; the important thing is what you do next)
  • And much more.

You don’t have to do anything on top of what you’re already doing to communicate effectively with your kids; you simply need to hone the skills you already have, and that’s a ton easier than you think.

Get ready to "speak kid" and form a deep connection that will last a lifetime!

the mindset leads you to better communication

There are so many great things about this book. I don't know where to start. I love how this book brings in so many aspects of parenting and communicating in a positive way. It talks about the practical things of what to do and how to do them but also goes deeper to talk about your mindset while you're parenting. That really makes a big difference. When you think about some of these things differently, it makes it easier to act differently. It's almost like once you change the mindset then the better actions come along with it naturally.

insightful guide to communicating with kids

As a nonparent, I approached "How to Talk to Anyone, Even Kids" with some skepticism, wondering if its focus on parenting dynamics would resonate with my own experiences. However, I was pleasantly surprised by the book's universal insights into effective communication that extend beyond the parent-child relationship. The writing style is clear and accessible, making it easy for readers of all backgrounds to understand the strategies and techniques presented. The book doesn't rely on complex theories but instead offers actionable tips for building stronger connections with kids. The emphasis on avoiding yelling and finding alternative ways to grab kids' attention is particularly relevant in today's world. As well as providing valuable insights into parenting, the guide offers valuable advice on how to promote respectful and positive communication.
