Almost all adults know what it's like to deal with strong emotions. Anger is either sadness, joy or admiration, learning to control these feelings is of no small importance in everyday life.
Children also experience many of the same feelings as adults. Because of their limited cognitive abilities and lack of maturity, children are more difficult to express emotions properly.
Adults need to help children learn how to express and shape their emotions.
Given the age indices, there are differences in the expression of emotions in adults and children.
Emotions are the heart and soul of giftedness. When we look into the eyes of children and adults, we see their souls.
Gifted children are full of emotions and enthusiasm. Emotional children can often cry if they are disappointed or feel unfairly treated by their parents, teachers or their peers.
Many adults are able to restrain and control their emotions with respect to pity and compassion. Their reaction to certain situations will be more effective than the child's.
Anger
For many people, work can be a major source of stress, and stress can lead to anger. Overwork, demands of superiors and even jealousy due to the advancement of an employee, can lead to confrontation. But in most cases, adults are able to manage their emotions and find compromise solutions in many situations. They are able to restrain a number of everyday emotions and prevent them from getting out of control.
Children do not always control their anger, so the expression of emotion is uncontrollable.
Whatever the reasons for anger in children, adults should find ways to help them express anger within reason and teach not to be angry when expressing their emotions.
Differences in the expression of emotions of anger consist in the fact that many adults can dismiss anger with relative ease, but children are much more difficult to cope with such emotions.
Managing emotions
Parents can and should effectively train their children to manage emotions, helping them to process and express their emotions accordingly. This is very useful for the child in the future.
Adults need to talk with children about different situations that cause certain emotions and teach them to understand their feelings.
Be an example for your children. Learn more about managing emotions using pedagogical methods in parenting.
Crying is a common way of expressing resentment or discontent.
Children can cry because of physical discomfort or pain. Discontent is manifested in screaming or a child may be puffed up. Adults express their dissatisfaction with language, sometimes using slang.
Playing sports is a good tool for discipline and self-organization.
Sport can teach a child to communicate with others and focus on a common goal.
Unlike adults, children are not able to express many emotions orally, because they lack a vocabulary.
Parents are a powerful example of imitation for their children. The practice of responsible emotional management is a fundamental part of teaching your child the skill of handling emotions.
The ability to define and interpret the facial expressions of emotions is of great importance in human communication and social interaction. Six facial expressions are universal in different cultures: happy, angry, expression of anguish, anxiety, disgust and surprise.
Mimic emotions in adults and children naturally have differences. Children can jump with happiness, and with admiration loudly admire. Adults are more reserved in such situations. Expression of anguish and anxiety in adults can pass outwardly imperceptibly, and in children these emotions become apparent.
The ability to react emotionally is already present in infancy.
This is part of the process of human development. Emotions are regulated by the "biological clock" (the brain and its maturation). The environment and its influences at different times can change the emotional development of children.
