Children have a desire to know that important people in their lives care about their concerns. This is just the natural makeup of humans. But not only do they want to be empathized with, they also need to simply just be heard.
This is one of the primary roles that psychologists and counselors play with their clients. They are there to listen to the person’s problems. Just being able to talk about a problem and get it off one’s chest can be enough to make someone feel better sometimes.
Be there for your child emotionally when she has a problem that’s troubling her. You’ll find your concern will go a long way in helping her see that she needn’t act out to get others around her to know how terrible she feels.
