They tell their kids "You're special" or "You can be anything you want."
Kids need an emotional vocabulary to develop empathy.
Here are ways parents can teach that: Label emotions: Intentionally name emotions in context to help them build an emotion vocabulary: "You're happy!"
Share feelings: Kids need opportunities to express their feelings in a safe way.
To help kids build curiosity, I like to use open-ended toys, gadgets and games.
