As parents and caregivers, one of our goals should be for our tiny humans to trust us - trust us to keep them safe and trust us to do what we say we’re going to do.

You may think this happens in the big moments - them coming to you with a big secret or confiding in you - but trust is actually built in the smaller moments, like being true to your word.

If we do things like sneaking out when we leave or telling them something that isn’t true and then they find out, we’re breaking our trust to them. We do this sometimes because it’s easier to avoid a conflict.

For example, maybe they ask for a second cookie, but I don’t want them to have another one, so I tell them they’re all gone when they’re really not. If they look and see that we’re lying, then we’re breaking our trust to them.
