Empathy is essential for nurturing a child or teenager’s emotional intelligence. It’s defined as the ability to see things from another person’s perspective — in other words, walking a mile in someone’s shoes.
Kids and teens who are empathetic are good at listening to others. They express care and concern towards people who are having a difficult time, and sometimes these kids become emotionally affected by negative events happening around them.
