Some kids are just born more sensitive. Help your child not take everything so hard.

All The Feels

WHEN MY daughter Stella was 6, she seemed to have developed into a first-class wimp. She shrieked when I tried to brush the knots out of her hair, had a meltdown whenever I told her no, and burst into tears if her little sister teased her. I used to think Stella was a drama queen. But then I talked to an expert and learned that she wasn’t acting. Stella has what many experts call emotional sensitivity. If your kid seems to get upset easily, follow these steps to help her manage emotions.

Show some empathy.
