[quote=Anonymous]It’s part of their personality for it to happen at all - just like how some adults are more sentimental or sensitive than others. If you and your partner are not occasionally moved to tears, why would your kids be? I suppose if they do feel that emotion, they might suppress it if they thought you’d scold or make fun of them. If your kids don’t grow up in a family where adults model a healthy range of emotions, why would they feel safe or comfortable sharing a vulnerable emotion in a physical, public way? [/quote]
