    From birth, listening is one of the most used activities of our daily life. There are several things you can do to improve your children's listening habits and get them to listen to you better.

    Start teaching listening skills early.

    It's never too late to start teaching these skills. But as children grow older, they will lose their patience(耐心). Bedtime and evening snack time are good chances for this.

    Listen to your children in the way you like to be listened to.

    Be a good role model by making your kids feel important while they are talking to you.

    Let your child complete what he is saying.

    "It's a waste of time talking to my parents," a teenager pointed out. "They say don't talk like that' while I'm speaking or they break in and change the subject to something on their minds."

    Know when to talk and when not to talk.

    There are times to keep quiet. When a child comes home after a bad day in school, don't get on his back immediately with something you want him to hear.
