Feelings are difficult to deal with（处理）, it’s very important to begin teaching kids about their feelings as early as possible because their feelings affect（影响）every choice they make. A child who can say, “I’m a little angry with you about what you did,” is less likely（有可能的）to get into fights. They can use clear sentences to express their feelings.
A good way to help kids deal with feelings is to set an example for them. Parents should often share their feelings with kids in their daily life. A parent could say to the kid, “I feel sad that you don’t want to share your toys with your sister.” Another great way to help kids learn about feelings is to discuss how different roles in TV plays may feel. When watching TV, a parent could stop and ask the kid, “ ▲ ” Then, discuss the feelings that the person may be experiencing and the reasons.
Doing so can teach children empathy. Young children think the world centers are around them, so it can be a good way for them to learn other people have feelings, too. When young children can understand other people’s feelings, they are less likely to do bad things to them. For example, if a child knows that pushing his friend to the ground may make his friend sad, he will be less likely to do so. What’s more, teaching a kid about feelings will help him become mentally（精神上）strong. Kids who have the skills to deal with their feelings will be so confident that they can face and manage whatever life throws in the way.
