Children let us know what they are feeling just by acting out their emotions – happy, sad, angry, excited, confused, frightened – the same emotions adults have. As adults, we cover up our emotions so that no one will know how we are feeling. For many, sharing their feelings is very hard to do. It means opening up and showing that you are vulnerable. We all have feelings – whatever our age is – and letting others know how you feel is ok to do. It shows that you are human and need the support of those closest to you to help you through the difficult times and celebrate with you through the good times. Share your feelings with your children. You are there for them – let them be there for you. For more info www.sheilaaronbooks.com.
