Ever consider that your children have "emotional tanks"? According to The 5 Love Languages of Children by Gary Chapman and Ross Campbell, every child and ultimately every adult has an emotional tank. Ensuring the emotional tank of each individual is essential in having healthy lives, healthy relationships and even healthy marriages. The aim of this book is to "love children effectively" and therefore this book helps parents determine their children's "love language". The book not only identifies how to determine a child's love language but most importantly how to provide the love language they need. After reading this book, it has really caused me to pause and consider how I demonstrate God's love to my children. It has caused me to be more aware of my children's emotional tanks. I greatly desire for my love to be communicated effectively such that my children not only know they are loved, but also that they FEEL loved!
