Take a Moment to Listen




Take a moment to listen


Take a moment to listen
To what your children are trying to say;
Listen today, whatever you do
Or they wont’ be there to listen to you.
Listen to their problems. Listen for their needs,
Praise their smallest triumphs, praise their smallest deeds;
Tolerate their chatter, amplify their laughter.
Find out what’s the matter; find out what they’re after.
But tell them that you love them, every single night;
And though you scold them, be sure you hold them;
Tell them “Everything’s all right; tomorrow’s looking bright.”
Take a moment to listen today.
To what your children are trying to say;
Listen today, whatever you do.
And they will come back to listen to you!!
