Empathy is a skill that can be learnt and taught to others and I believe its best taught at a young age.. and how do we do that? By role modelling empathy to children. Showing them how the other person might have felt.
Empathy is a very important skill to have as I find those who dont lack any real emotion and are a bit disconnected from communication
Absolutely. Children learn from watching the adults, and emulate our actions- not our words. Being a role model and"being that which we wish to see" is the number one most important teaching tool. :)
