Encourage Your Daughter to Journal
Posted May 11, 2010
on:
Adolescence is a difficult time for our
daughters. It may sometimes be difficult for
your daughter to talk about her feelings and
emotions when they are so raw.
One of the best ways for our daughter’s to
get through life’s emotion upheavals is to
keep a journal. Mothers could take the time
to journal themselves so that they could
show their daughters the benefits of
journalling. This could be a modelling
moment for you. It could also be a moment
that will bring you much closer to each other.
There are few better ways to begin to
teach our daughters to see and understand
the patterns in their lives than to encourage
them to encourage them to keep a written
record of what is important to them as they
are growing up. This can reveal so many
things about our daughters that they could
use for the rest of their lives.
When we encourage our daughter’s to
journal about her likes and dislikes, we are
asking her to chronicle her life. This will
make her feel important and unique, which
is very important as she is going through her
adolescent years. It could also help her to
build self-esteem.
