Emotional intelligence develops when a child not only understands one’s emotions, but also learns how to manage them.
Children who can boast a high or at least average level of sensory development have an easier time in school life. It is easier for them to communicate with teachers and classmates. And they also make their parents happy with their academic success.
And if a child has a low or even very low level of emotional intelligence, it is difficult for him or her to make friends with peers and find "common ground" with teachers. It is not uncommon for such students to have conflicts with others or become isolated from the team. In stressful and critical situations, it is difficult for the child to cope with his or her emotions. As a result, such children lag behind.
