How we communicate is often based on the relationship. Think about talking with your closest friend versus a friend you are just
getting to know. How about with your parents versus a brother or sister? What about the way you talk with an adult compared to people your age? Or what about one teacher versus another? Your internal dialog is also an important aspect of communication skills, and learning to communicate effectively and consistently is a healthy practice.
Communication within the family is extremely important because it enables members to express their needs, wants, and concerns to each other. Open and honest communication creates an atmosphere that allows family members to express their differences as well as love and admiration for one another
