Are You Speaking Your Child’s Love Language?

Okay.

So I'm thinking of a lot of moms maybe that are listening right now and they're like, yeah, well, I have teens.

I have great school kids.

I have younger than that.

And I am completely overwhelmed trying to get the kids out the door to school, just trying to feed them.

And maybe she has a job.

I mean, I literally had a conversation with some of my daughters who work overwhelmed recently because they have multiple children.

And, you know, the struggle is always you want to give each child the attention they need.

So how does a parent go about figuring out which love language goes with this child?

Yeah.

Well, let me give you three informal ways.

One is observe the child's behavior.

How do they relate to you and to perhaps their siblings? For example, my son's love language is physical touch.

And you can you can learn a child's love language sometimes by the time at least by the time they're four years old by their behavior.

So when he was that age, when I came home from work, he would run to the door and grab my legs and climb on me.

Every day he's touching me.

And then there would be times sitting around the house.

He just come up and, you know, kind of put himself close to me and start hitting me or touching me.

Our daughter never did that.

At that age, my daughter would say, Daddy, come into my room.

I want to show you something.

She was asking for quality time.

She wanted my undivided attention.

So that's one way.

And it's a pretty, it's a pretty sure way of figuring out their love language really at a young age.
