[quote=Anonymous]I am pretty non-emotional about it (I certainly would never cry or carry on about it), but I absolutely would say if something was unkind and could/did hurt my feelings (usually it is that it could, not that it actually did). For instance, if my child says, "I don't like you," I would say: that wasn't a nice thing to say. It is important that you not say things like that to people. It could hurt their feelings. I don't understand how people expect their children to develop empathy if they do not believe that other people have feelings. That is the entire basis to empathy - understanding someone else's feelings. [/quote]
