Person to Person: Teaching Emotional Maturity to Children

Research output: Other contribution

Abstract

To help young children mature in emotionally sound ways, be sure to explain why it's good to come across as well-behaved. Explain to your kids that good manners smooth out the bumps in life. But, also explain that when we have mature behaviors, this helps others trust us. "When we know what emotionally sound behavior is, we can judge other people and most situations accurately," says a clinical psychologist we'll call Aaron.
