Caring Connections - Parental Support Survey

 The start of the year can be tough. With so much pressure to reinvent ourselves sometimes all you need to hear is encouragement that you are already enough. 

Language learning company Preply surveyed nearly 1,000 Americans to see what the most impactful words of support are and what phrases we may be tired of hearing. 

  • 40% haven’t heard words of support from their parents in six months or longer.
  •  At home, the best words of support to hear are “I love you,” “I appreciate everything you do,” and “I’m proud of you.”
  • The top supportive phrases that people actually find just annoying are, “You’re stronger than you think,” “You’re not defined by this moment,” and “You’re a fighter.”
  • 61% see people sharing words of support more on social media than in real life.
