adults who work with children every day-teachers coaches，or club leaders-sometimes need some communication tips.

　　 Many times adults confuse communication with telling a child what to do. Telling a child to do his homework or get more sleep isn't really communication. It's important information that your child needs but it's lacking an important part of communication. It's lacking the two－way exchange of feelings and ideas. True communication takes two people. The American Academy of Pediatrics states "Healthy communication-the kind that builds a strong two－way bridge-is crucial(至关重要的) in helping your child develop a healthy personality and good relationships with you and others. It gives your child a chance to become a happy safe healthy person，no matter what happens."

　　 So you know it's important but how do you do it? Effective communication between parents and children is not always easy. Children and adults have different communication styles and different ways of responding in a conversation. In addition timing and place can determine how successful communication will be. Parents should make time to talk with their children in a quiet unhurried manner. It's also important that parents should be ready to listen whenever their child wants to talk even it's an inconvenient time.
