How often do people speak about your child, in their presence, rather than directly to them? “Will he want a drink?” “How’s she getting on with her teacher?” “I bet he loves having a new baby brother.” Kids can be unpredictable, sometimes blunt, and often will need a bit of coaching to take part in a conversation with another adult. Don’t let that put you off - send your child a really empowering message next time someone asks about them by inviting them into the conversation.“I’m not sure, let’s ask her”, or “He can tell you a bit about that himself”, are gentle ways to remind others, and your child, that they are their own person, with their own thoughts and feelings, who can answer for themselves.
