Using “I” statements instead of “you” statements when speaking to children helps create a more respectful and empathetic environment. For example, saying “I feel upset when the toys are left out” instead of “You’re so messy” expresses your feelings without blaming or criticizing. This approach encourages open communication, reduces defensiveness, and helps children understand how their actions affect others. Over time, it fosters emotional intelligence and strengthens your connection with your c

You know I statements are important, but are you using them wrong? Here's the key: "I feel" must be followed by an emotion. I feel angry. I feel hurt. I feel unimportant. That's a real I statement. But "I feel like you're ignoring me" or "I feel that you're wrong"? Those aren't I statements, they're accusations disguised as feelings. No wonder the other person gets defensive. Want better conversations? Make sure "I feel" is always followed by an actual emotion. | Dr. Leah Katz

"I AM" not "I FEEL" Breaking the "I AM" pattern can be a powerful tool in managing anxiety and other negative emotions. When we say "I am anxious," "I am sad," or "I am fearful," we're defining ourselves by those emotions. Instead, try saying "I feel anxious," "I feel sad," or "I feel fearful." This simple shift in language helps us detach from those emotions and recognise them as temporary feelings rather than permanent parts of our identity. Research in cognitive psychology consistently shows
