Trust Starts Early.
Let it be known that you believe what your son tells you.
If he truly believes you trust him, he will want to live up to that trust.
Your opinion helps to make him a trustworthy person.
Of course, if you do not ask the right question you may not get the whole story.
Boys are smart and clever. Remember an omission will not feel like a lie to him.
This is a challenging area, especially with teenagers, but remember they do want to meet your expectations and they want to be trusted and valued.
There you go. Another lesson for today. Now, go and love your son in your own special way. Some days are long but, trust me, the years will just disappear.
Love,
MarnaKay
