How can a parent encourage a teenager to share information without asking direct questions?

An invitation creates a chance for connection. It reduces pressure on a person. This makes the person more likely to share information freely.

The rule

An invitation creates a chance for connection.

It reduces pressure on a person. This makes the person more likely to share information freely.

An invitation is better than asking many questions. An invitation opens a door for talking. It does not demand an answer. This approach makes a teenager feel less pressure. The teenager can then choose to share when ready. This builds trust between the parent and the teenager.

A parent wants to know about a teenager's day. The parent says, 'I am making tea. Would you like some?' The parent does not ask, 'How was school?' The teenager might then start talking about their day while drinking tea.
