Document Summary
Communication is the basis for having a good relationship with our children. However, it is easier than we can come to believe; establishing an assertive communication in the family is possible. It is essential to have assertive communication in the family to strengthen relationships between its members. Good communication is reflected in healthy ties, mutual respect, affection, affection and companionship, either in the relationship of the parents, these with the children or between siblings. When you say yes to other people, make sure you are not saying no to yourself. Assertive communication in the family is the healthiest communication. There are three main forms of communication: the passive form, where generally one of the members does not express his concerns, speaks in a low tone of voice, accepts without understanding what is being asked. This passive form leads to a relationship of inequality and disadvantage vis- -vis the other member of the family.
