Experts Discuss Parent-Child Communication Gap

Imagine that kids find it hard to talk to their parents.

Experts held a meeting and discussed this.

They said that it's important for parents and kids to talk more, not just give advice.

This is because kids feel more comfortable sharing when they trust their parents.

However, busy lives, mobile phones and parental stress are causing kids and parents to spend less time in meaningful conversations.

This gap can start when children are as young as nine or ten, and make it difficult for kids to feel safe confiding in their parents.

It's like building a strong friendship.
