It is easy to always focus on the things that are children are not doing right, this week, though Jordan explores things to keep in mind around offering criticism and praise. It is always important to accentuate the positive things your children are doing for all kinds of reasons. The biggest one, though, is that your voice can become their internal voice and can influence their self-esteem later on.

Weekly vlogs are done by Jordan Shaw, graduate intern for the Turner Family Counseling Center.
