It's hard to have an honest and open communication in relationship. So if there is something you want to tell to your partner and to your children what would it be, In order for them to understand what's in your heart? Something you wish that they only know and something that's in your heart although you find it hard to express them.

Sometimes I want to say to my parents that I love them and that they mean a lot to me, but I guess I'm too proud to do it. I think they know that even though I never say it loud...

I feel same way but i do not think it is as a result of pride ! maybe it is because of the culture and tradition were i grew up.I don't feel free to use the word LOVE for my parent but i use it for my kids ever seconds and i hope to learn using it for my parent because they made me what i am today magnus1

Yeah, they might absolutely know that you love them, however it helps a lot when you express it by words they will feel more special. Words and deeds makes everything perfect. You can try to do it and you'll see the difference. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

Well that's good and it's also important that we never fail to say and remind how much we love them. That's what they really need. Anyway thank you for sharing with us and enjoy your day!

Hi, careguarden. I would like to tell my kids that although I fuss at them, I love them dearly and that I want them to behave. For my husband, I will say to him, Baby, I know that I may get on your nerves every now and then, but it is only because I want your attention and that I love you very much. This is what I will tell my kids and my husband. I want them all to know my true and deep feelings for them.

I have the same problem. It's funny though, I can say anything what's in my heart to my best friend but it's so difficult to talk about it with your spouse and children. Maybe it's because we're afraid they would misunderstand or get the wrong impressions. I'm divorced now, so my focus is on my son. What I do is, I would take time alone with my son, plan a short vacation, spend quality time and fun to clear the both of us from all negative feelings, and then talk from heart to heart in a friendly way. I want to ask him what's in his heart and in his head, and tell him that I'm sorry I nag and yell at him, but it's because I'm tired of working and I'm getting old, but I love him and wants the best life for him.

i have no children yet.i can say something about my partner when at the beginning times i can't say something private just like my weight or something else ...so now when we memorize the gone times he says that he likes to know everything about me no matter how bad i think of it .the more he knows about me the more he will understand me . if you can't say. you can try to write down with email or post card.. i'm sure that your partner and your children will understand you
