Description

Discover how to avoid harmful words and replace them with words that nurture

- Grow your child's sense of self, bolster their budding faith, and nurture your relationship with them
- Learn how to break generational cycles of unintentional hurt
- From a mother of nine and a regular contributor to Wild + Free

Our words have an impact on our children, yet how often do we slow down long enough to really think about what that impact might be? Many common phrases we utter as parents have a negative effect on our kids, unintentionally causing anxiety, stress, self-consciousness, or depression. Some of them even become a barrier to our child's faith and their trust in Christ.

In Words Like Honey, sought-after speaker, writer, and mother of nine Amy Hughes explores specific words and phrases we commonly use when talking to our kids and considers the negative impact they may have. Things like
- "Hurry up"
- "Calm down"
- "Don't be sad"
- "You should be ashamed of yourself"
- "God doesn't give you more than you can handle"
- "You just need more faith"
- and more

Then she offers alternative words and phrases, giving us the practical help we need to choose better language in the moment that will build up our children's confidence, faith, and sense of worth in the long run. With support from Scripture, stories, and studies throughout, this book offers compassion and encouragement for all of us who want to parent with more intention.
