This is an idea I am submitting for free public consumption because I think it is a great parenting technique. It is called 10 Seconds and you can and should feel free to use it. Ask your child to try and stare into your eyes without looking away for 10 seconds. You can start this at the age of 3. For most kids, this is difficult to do on the first try. Kids tend to be distracted easily and well, looking into Mom or Dad's eyes for an extended period of time can be a little intense for a child. However, if you can get the little ones in your life to do this for 10 seconds, regularly, it is a great way of re-connecting with them when things get crazy, upsetting or ridiculously frenetic. Think of 10 seconds as a grounding exercise, a meditation for children. In the toughest of times, you will see how wonderful a skill it is to cultivate. Then try 20. A nice by-product, it actually seems to build some aspect of self-esteem - helping them make eye contact generally. Nice, right?
