RE: Sharing Is Caring, Is It Or Is It Not?

in #parenting7 years ago

Ahhhh this is so true.
Rather than forcing to share, how about teaching empathy and to pay attention to and care about how others feel? Then perhaps, when they see a child who looks sad or lonely, they will go over because THEY WANT to make that child feel better and share whatever they have. Could be a toy. Could just be their time.
Rather than forcing children to do certain behaviors, it is much better to teach them to care about others, and value others, and the rest will naturally fall into place.
