[quote=Anonymous]A lot of good advice above, but I think its also good to talk less about feelings. Yes kids have "big feelings," disappointment, jealousy, etc. But you also don't need to treat these feelings like they are so very important and must be managed carefully and prepared for and prevented. I would focus more on acceptable and unacceptable behavior, and be a little more matter-of-fact about feelings. Children don't need to be taught to focus on themselves and their feelings (they are pretty naturally selfish) but they do need to be taught how their behavior impacts others.[/quote]
