Researchers have found that parents who use “reflective messages” with their children have kids who are more socially adept. This means that parents encourage their children to think about the impact of their actions on others as well as on themselves. When they comfort their children, they encourage them to express their feelings. Children who are parented with this emphasis are both more likely to be chosen as friends and less likely to be rejected.
