[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Re: teaching empathy, one of the things I did often when DS was that age (and still do sometimes although he's a little older now) was to point out people when we were out and about (not literally point) and just ask him, "How do you think he/she feels?" If it was a child who was crying, he'd say "sad" and I'd ask what could have made the child feel sad? And we'd talk about different things that could have happened. I'd point out all different people - kids, adults, happy, sad, angry. Gave us a chance to discuss real life examples of people and their feelings whilenot in the heat of a problem with DS. [/quote] This is great, thank you. He really likes to talk about things he sees and hears, so we will do more of this. He does recognize facial expressions from books etc, so we will take it the next step and ask what actions could cause those feelings. Great exercise.[/quote]
