I came across this beautiful piece of inspiring music/video on You-tube sung by Josh Groban by the title of: "You Raise Me Up"
Human warmth is the best physical communication that brings its own special kind of reassurance for parent, child and all relationships.
If you are successful in establishing open lines of communication with your child about day-to-day events, she or he will be more likely to seek your input on other serious issues as well.
As a parent keep reassuring your child, teen-ager, young adult that you will always be there for them no matter what. Whether you believe it or not, they ARE listening and it will mean so much to your child, for him or her to hear you say that. Not only say you love him or her unconditionally, but follow up with affection.
Be understanding and pay close attention to what THEY have to say and in so doing you will help rebuild their self-confidence and self-esteem and bring you closer to each other in the human connection.
So take that first step, try reaching out and connecting and see where it goes from there! You will be amazed at the results........
