DG4Kids Table Talk Questions (September '11)
September 7, 2011
What
family
rule
do
you
like?
What
would
you
change
or
add?
Weve
said
this
before,
but
we
want
to
remind
you
that
one
of
the
goals
for
the
Table
Talk
questions
is
to
create
a
safe
place
for
your
kids
to
talk
freely
about
how
they
really
feel
and
think.
If
you
react
negatively
to
their
answers
theyll
shut
down
and
will
probably
be
very
selective
about
what
they
share
in
the
future.
You
may
already
know
what
rules
your
kids
would
change
if
they
could,
but
you
may
be
surprised
by
the
rules
they
would
add!
Be
a
good
listener!
Youll
learn
a
lot
about
how
your
kids
think
about
rules
and
where
you
may
need
to
be
more
deliberate
about
teaching
the
heart
behind
the
rules,
as
well
as
the
rule
itself.

If they suggest changing a rule: Why would you change a rule? What dont you like about the rule? What would happen if there were no rules at all?
