Kids and teens are often dismissive of praise from their parents. I am
sure that parents out there can relate to this, as we have been all been
told at one time or another by one or several of our kids, "stop it
mom" or even, "you're just saying that because you are my parent and you
have to say that." I can assure you, though, that they are listening.
They will probably not thank you for this praise until they are in their
twenties, but don't let that stop you from praising them during their
childhood and teen years. Just be careful how you praise them. A little
praise may go a long way -- especially if it is the right kind of
praise. Barbara Greenberg
