Research concludes that children, who can identify, understand and manage their emotions do better in life. Like learning to walk and talk, the process of learning to deal with feelings takes place gradually over months.
One of our jobs as parents and teachers is to help children understand and deal with their feelings.
Handling intense emotions and feelings takes more than limit setting or telling children to “use their words”. Children need to be taught the skills of “emotional” intelligence!
