The Five Love Languages is not new to me, we learned about it several years ago. But today, listening to this interview gave me new insights that I had to pause the video a few times to jot down some notes so that I won't forget about them. Listening to Focus on the Family while I do chores at home has become my routine and has made every little chore I do so much more enjoyable and meaningful, and not a single minute will be wasted. Thank you for what you do, Focus on the Family!

5 Love languages 1. Physical touch 2. Words of affirmation 3. Quality time 4. Gifts 5. Acts of service These are true too when we reached adulthood too. My husband helped me with keeping the house clean and with the laundry as we were bringing up our 4 children ( Love language no. 5). He thought he was showing that he loves me but to me, it’s his responsibility as a father / husband to help with all these. My love language was physical touch and words of affirmation . He said that it was not “ his style”.
You write well. I think this is related to me too. I am 38 years old and 15 years of marriage 👫 . It is so frustrating when you don't understand each other's love language .
I had a very critical dad..It is very damaging..I give anything if he cared enough to apologized.Thank you and pray for me as I am raising a grand child now.Awesome show.
Thanks for sharing, Teresa. We were sorry to hear about your painful childhood. Know that we’re praying for you, asking the Lord to heal your wounds and fill the empty spaces in your heart. We’ll also pray that He will grant you wisdom as you look to Him for guidance in raising your grandchild. Also, if you ever need a listening ear, please don’t hesitate to call us at (800) 232-6459. Blessings!
I recently discovered your YT chanelle eager to learn to give best of me to my two boys age 9&11, I didn't have best childhood can't change my past but I don't want to repeat to my kids my best place is my alone time pray for me and thank you for helping so many like me.
Thanks for talking about this important topic.l am a devout Muslim but I am happy to connect with another community of faith.l think we have more in common than we realise.ln today's isolated nuclear families it is so important to link with like minded parents.l am grateful to learn new ways to look at the common issues and would be talking to my daughters about their love language.
What a wonderful topic! I learned so much about each of my kids & what I can offer to them. Unfortunately I have been providing my needs/love language to them instead of seeking what they need. I will certainly be sharing this with my husband & friends.
My Elder sister used Acts of Service to the heaviest Dose possible to make ME feel loved...But, my Love Language is Physical Touch...I will send her this video with a Big Note...
I am saddened to come to these truths because of my lack of knowing. I have a 7 year old ggirl that is struggling every day. Thank you please pray for us
We're praying for your and your daughter, asking God to surround you with His love and be your source of wisdom and strength. If you’d like to talk with one of our counselors (at no cost to you), call 855-771-HELP (4357) weekdays between 6 A.M. and 8 P.M. (MT). Grace and peace to you and your family, Pamela.
The outcome can also be the contrary. You can exercise page by page according to the book the 5 love language towards your child although the outcome can move into the wrong direction. If a child decides in its adulthood to leave all the values of their parents, what can you do than pray?
I initially bought into the love language idea until I realized that everyone is a combination of all five. In other words the qualifiers render the hypothesis meaningless.
I disagree with your assessment there. Possibly you, or someone you are thinking of specifically is a solid combo of all 5. But in general, most people strongly gravitate/prefer/are bent to one of the 5. Their one is what opens the door to the relationship for that person, and helps them to feel seen and understood.
Every human being is unique, but the way they understand LOVE will basically be, simplified, one of the five. You might read this book, & come away w/ a different perspective of how you see these truths, but, if you simplify them, you'll see how they come down to these for your child, whether they're a minor or an adult. ❤

What makes one child feel loved may not work for another child this is so true
5 Love languages
1. Physical touch
2. Words of affirmation
3. Quality time
4. Gifts
5. Acts of service

Raised 7 kids one with autism with no help but lots of “physical touch” 🙄 but he was there and paid the bills 🙏🏻❤️🕊 I am grateful.
Well said
Well doing chores after working all day isn't my "style"! I'm thankful for a wife who keeps the home.
I did and still do all of these for my daughter.
I had a very critical dad..It is very damaging..I give anything if he cared enough to apologized.Thank you and pray for me as I am raising a grand child now.Awesome show.

My mother was the same. Forgiving and praying for my mother has helped a lot.
I really needed this. Time for a change before it’s too late!!
Yes it’s never too late praise Jesus
Teens who are still leaning on their father and ftheir ather still loving that.. Blessed dad.

If a child decides in its adulthood to leave all the values of their parents, what can you do than pray?

Where do I go to have my son take this quiz?

can a child have more than one love language?
