Whisper

 

 
 
 
 

I would like to share with you an easy and useful communication skill; mysterious whispering.

 

 

Case 1

In the morning, the child did not want to go to school. Her dad tried coaxing her and so did her grandma but she just didn't want to go. The temptation was not great enough for her.

Here came her mother, in front of everyone, mom got close to her ear and whispered, "Today after school, mom will take you to that road again, we will take the bus first then go to the park and then we will go to the mall… Shh, we won’t let dad know, it's a secret."

 

 

Then mom turned to the child’s father and said, "humph! You can't go together!"

The after-school arrangements were exciting to her and how she was told made her feel that it was a secret that belonged to her and her mother only.

Of course, dad's aggrieved and envious expression played a very important role.

 

 

Case 2

There was competition for attention with amongst two cousins. Both wanted to be held in their family member’s arms, the older sister was sensible but overbearing, "this is my mother!"

And the younger cousin was naive and kind: "I want a hug too." I quickly hugged the two in my arms and whispered to the older sister, "even if mother is holding your cousin, I still love you the most."

 

 

I also whispered to her younger cousin, "Auntie is holding you ~ so happy!"

The two girls love each other, but they both care about being loved by others, whispering can make them both feel special.

 

 

In the adults’ world, whispering can be defined as trusting or mysterious. When it is introduced in parenting, it can also transmit much information.

Imagine that when we get close to her soft ears and the air that blows out tickles her ears, and maybe she can smell the familiar smell on us. Whispering really does not pass on just words.
