Here’s a simple parenting tip– take some time to relax with your boy. Pediatrician Dr. Meg Meeker says that most parents don’t realize the importance of “doing nothing” with sons. Even if you only have ten minutes, invite your son to sit down on the front porch with you with his favorite snack or drink. Don’t badger him with questions, check your phone, or start lecturing. Simply sit together. Dr. Meeker says this is important for several reasons. It communicates that rest is an important part of life. It shows your son that he’s worthy of undivided attention. And it’s also an excellent way to get your boy to start communicating his thoughts and feelings. All of those benefits– and you get a short break, too.
