HOW WAS SCHOOL TODAY? FINE.

A User-Friendly Discussion Guide for Parents and Their Elementary School-Aged Children

By Shannon A. White & Peyton White

Three Major Message Points

1. If parents are getting one word responses after school, they may not be asking the right questions.
2. Children want to connect and talk with their parents.  They want to know them and be known.
3. When parents change for the better, and continue to grow emotionally, their children will respond. “How was school today, honey?”
