A child gets hurt, begins to cry, the parent says, “Oh, you’re fine.”
A parent asks their hurting teenager, “Are you ok?” Teenager replies sadly, “I’m fine.”
Adult complains to their partner, “Can we talk about this?” Partner sighs, replies with “{silence}”
If you don’t teach them how to communicate, you’ll show them how not to.
If you don’t allow them to show their emotions, you’ll shame them about having them.
