We want our children to learn to express themselves — within the family, in school, and in the community in which they live.

What role can parents play in supporting positive communication with their kids? How can you keep the lines of communication open, even when the conversation may involve topics like race, ethnicity, identity, and culture?

Donald E. Grant, Jr., PsyD, is a child/adolescent development expert, executive director of Mindful Training Solutions, LLC and founder of the Center for Community & Social Impact, Pacific Oaks College.
