Tips for Connecting With Your Child in a Fun Way

Dr Lachlan Soper, based in Mosman, Sydney, Australia, is many things to many people—a caring general practitioner to his patients, a committed cyclist to his biking companions—but, most importantly, a father to his three beautiful children. Parents often prioritize their children’s physical needs, such as food, shelter, and clothing. However, it is equally important to prioritize their emotional needs, such as love, attention, and connection. Children who feel connected to their parents are more likely to have higher self-esteem, better social skills, stronger relationships with others and less likely to act out in negative ways. Connecting with your child doesn’t have to be a chore or a task; it can be a fun experience for both of you. https://lachlansoper.org.au/tips-for-connecting-with-your-child-in-a-fun-way/
