"People who struggle to express sadness may doubt the validity of their feelings. Assure them it is normal to experience sadness and that their emotions are valid. Show empathy and understanding by acknowledging their pain without downplaying or dismissing it. Help them recognise that their emotions matter and deserve to be acknowledged and respected."![]()

"It is important to note that we may not, off the bat, feel empathy equally for everyone in our species (and I should point out that primates are the same way). We have empathy for those that we see as part of our 'in-group,' while we can tend to attribute negative intentions to those in our 'out-group.' As people develop strong allegiances to 'their side,' it’s important to fight the tendency to only give empathy to those that we see as similar to ourselves, and model this for our children."![]()
