According to Columbia-trained psychologist and intergenerational trauma expert, Dr. Mariel Buqué, words like that can teach kids to keep their feelings to themselves instead of talking about them.

Try asking: “How are you feeling right now?” “How can I help?” “Help me understand.” Those simple questions let a child know they’re heard and supported - even when things are hard.

This conversation with @Dr.MarielBuque gives you simple words to use and practical ideas you can try right away - at the dinner table, on the phone, or in everyday moments that matter.
