Empathy - Positive experiences are critical for development

Last year when Ajani was in pre-k his mother was late to pick him up and he was waiting outside with his teacher another parent and her child decided to wait with him also . This year he is in a public school kindergarten  and  one day I went to pick him up one day his teacher wanted to speak with me .

I need to tell you what happen today . It was time to go  to GYM and one child did not want to go and your grandson did not want either he said that he would stay with the child .He was being defiant .
I tried to explain to her that he was just being  being supportive by not wanting to leave his friend alone. The teacher did not understand that concept .
With what is going on with our young people teachers need to spend time encouraging young children to develop life skills and especially empathy this way children will grow up respecting their lives and others.

Adults who are caring for young children must be open to seeking new information and fusing  it  with  they are already doing.
