Why does a high school student need emotional intelligence?

With this type of intelligence, we can understand and manage our own and others' emotions. The authors of the first book on emotional intelligence refer to four components:

1. Perception - the ability to understand your own and other people's emotions. The best helpers will be gestures, facial expressions, voices, postures.
2. Understanding - The ability to find reasons for emotions in oneself and others, and to make connections between emotions.
3. Management - The ability to suppress emotions, arouse and channel one's own and others' feelings in order to achieve goals.
4. Stimulating thinking - awakening creativity and energizing the brain.

Emotional intelligence is developed when a child not only understands his or her emotions, but also learns 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. 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 to make friends with peers and not easy to find "common language" with teachers. Often such students are in conflict with others or isolated from the collective. In stressful and critical situations it is difficult for a child to cope with his emotions. As a result, the academic performance of such children is "lame".

That is why it is so important for parents to pay attention to a child's emotional intelligence. Attention, love and care of the closest people will help yesterday's unsociable triplets to become more confident, find new friends and move to the status of "excellent" or at least "good" students.

In the following posts, let's talk about how to develop your child's emotional intelligence.
